Re: Multiproject property overriding.

[Gaurav Kushwaha]

But the point of contention here is the properties specified in
${basedir1}/project.properties and ${basedir2}/build.properties where
${basedir1} is the project root of the sub project and ${basedir2} is
the root of the multiproject project root. My pic was that
${basedir2}/build.properties should override the properties mentioned
in earlier file.

Thanks,
Gaurav.

Shouldn't build.properties in master project override the properties
specified in the individual project's project.properties ?

Thanks,
Gaurav.

Multiproject property overriding.

[Gaurav Kushwaha]

Hi have a multiproject and multiple sub projects. I have a property
that is defined in each sub project. But occasionally I want to
override it by changing it only in the master project's
project.properties.
So essentially I have "project.version" property in each project's
project.properties file. And I want to override that property in all
the projects just by making that change in the master project's
project.properties file.
Is it possible ? I tried doing it. Wasn't able to.
Will appreciate any help.

Thanks,
Gaurav.
