Jon Lorusso commented on MPH-71: -------------------------------- I concur with previous comments. I need a way to do something like this: mvn help:evaluate -Dexpression=project.version So that I can get at the pom's version, without (as has been said above) parsing the pom myself. I am fairly surprised this type of functionality does not exist in this or any other of the many many plugins out there. > call help:evaluate in batch mode > -------------------------------- > > Key: MPH-71 > URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MPH-71 > Project: Maven 2.x Help Plugin > Issue Type: Wish > Affects Versions: 2.1 > Reporter: Galak > Priority: Minor > > The help:evaluate goal is designed to be called in interactive mode. > I would like to call this goal in batch mode, passing the expression to > evaluate in a property (on the command line). > The final purpose is to evaluate predefined expressions inside a script > (unfortunately, the script is a batch file in my case...) -- 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
