> Properties are not inherited
> ----------------------------
>
> Key: MRELEASE-668
> URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MRELEASE-668
> Project: Maven Release Plugin
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: prepare
> Affects Versions: 2.1
> Reporter: Maarten Billemont
>
> When a parent defines a property, eg. myproject.version, and a child uses it
> in reference of a dependency on a module in the project, the property cannot
> be found, and prepare fails with:
> [ERROR] Failed to execute goal
> org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-release-plugin:2.1:prepare (default-cli) on
> project myproject: The version could not be updated: ${myproject.version} ->
> [Help 1]
> Setup:
> mycompany:myproject:1.0-SNAPSHOT ( has
> <properties><myproject.version>1.0-SNAPSHOT</myproject.version></properties> )
> - mycompany.myproject:child1:1.0-SNAPSHOT ( has no <properties />, has a
> <dependency> on mycompany.myproject:child2:${myproject.version} )
> - mycompany.myproject:child2:1.0-SNAPSHOT
> This setup results in the error message above after showing:
> [INFO] Transforming 'child1'...
> [INFO] Updating child2 to 1.0
> If I copy the <properties> from myproject into child1 then child1's
> dependency on child2 updates just fine.
> I would expect child1 to *inherit* all properties from myproject, but for
> some reason, it doesn't.
