Hi Chris,
You can simply use properties in an activated profile of your settings.xml,
see
http://maven.apache.org/ref/current/maven-settings/settings.html#class_profile
Then properties are simply referenced in your pom as ${property name}.
That would be something like the following in your pom.xml:
<build>
<finalName>${artifactId}-${version}</finalName>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-jar-plugin</artifactId>
<executions>
<execution>
<goals>
<goal>sign</goal>
</goals>
</execution>
</executions>
<configuration>
<keystore>${keystore}</keystore>
<alias>SomeAliasHere</alias>
<storepass>SomeStorePass</storepass>
</configuration>
</plugin>
</plugins>
</build>
And you would have something like this in the activated profile of your
settings.xml:
<properties>
<keystore>c:/key/systest.jks</keystore>
</properties>
You can also define the property in your pom.xml and it would stand as the
default value.
Regarding different set of properties for different project, I would scope
the properties names such as "com.mycompany.myproject.keystore".
You could also use different profile, but to my opininon this is more
complicated to use and more likely to be of some problem if you ever need to
activate multiple profiles at the same time…
Hope this helps,
SaM
