Brett Porter closed MNG-3820. ----------------------------- Resolution: Won't Fix it is by design for interpolation to occur after inheritance so that fields in the parent can be interpolated as well. This would also be a serious reproducibility problem for a release. > Properties in pom or from the command line are not resolved before parent pom > is tried to load > ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MNG-3820 > URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-3820 > Project: Maven 2 > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Command Line > Affects Versions: 2.0.9 > Reporter: Lassi Immonen > > We tried to parametrize the parent version, but it seems to be impossible. > The parent must be loadable through <relativePath> that the parametrization > works, but when building submodules alone with parent pom only in repository, > parametrization is impossible. > This is impossible: > <parent> > <version>${parent_version}</version> > </parent> > <properties><parent_version>0.5</parent_version> > and/or from the command line: -Dparent_version=0.5 > Could the properites and command line be resolved BEFORE the parent pom load? -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://jira.codehaus.org/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
