I discovered (by experiment - using Maven 2.1.1) that the above didn't
work (for me), but what did work was to replace the variable name (I use
"postNoticeText") references with $project.properties.postNoticeText

Are there any rule(s) which describe when you have to reference
variables using project.properties. and when
you can just use ?  Or did I do something
incorrect in my attempt before?

Adding some lines to the Notice file packaged with Jars in standard Apache projects

2010-04-17 Thread Marshall Schor
The Apache common POM (
http://repo2.maven.org/maven2/org/apache/apache/7/apache-7.pom ) uses
the maven remote resources plugin to retrieve standard files including
META-INF/NOTICE for inclusion in Jar file builds for Apache projects.

It retrieves the resource org.apache:apache-jar-resource-bundle:1.4

We need for many of our Jars to have the same additional lines in the
NOTICE file.  I noticed that the DEPENDENCIES.vm file has at the end the
lines:

#if($postDepListText)
$postDepListText
#end  

which allows users to include custom text.  If something like this was
added to the NOTICE.vm, then we could use that to address our use case.

Or is there a better approach for this?
