Glen Mazza commented on MTOMCAT-196:
------------------------------------
You can still define properties in parent POMs of course: <properties>
<my.lib.version>3.2</my.lib.version> </properties>, then use
<version>${my.lib.version}</version>.
I believe Guillaume is referring to the exec-war and exec-war-only goals, as
those seem to be the only two with those options. I don't know what the
difference is between warRunDependency and extraDependency (the docs don't
define the former:
http://tomcat.apache.org/maven-plugin-2.1-SNAPSHOT/tomcat7-maven-plugin/exec-war-mojo.html.)
Also, I'm not sure what types of dependencies would need to be placed in the
Tomcat root classloader and not just with the web application itself (i.e.,
can't Guillaume just declare these as normal <dependencies/> within the WAR so
the version numbers can be taken care of that way?) Although this suggestion
does have merit, arguably it may not be worth the effort if it is so rarely
used and <properties/> can be used instead, further, as a drawback it might
cause more people to incorrectly over-use this functionality instead of
properly defining the <dependencies/> with the WAR itself.
