Re: Load properties from file/url to pom.xml

2007-03-08 Thread Wayne Fay

The use of externally properties files was purposefully abandoned in M2.

In your case, I'd make a single shared parent pom and have the other poms use 
it as their parent, so you will inherit the properties set in the parent. Or 
utilize profiles.xml or settings.xml to share the properties.

Otherwise, you will need to write a plugin to access the properties file and 
read the contents etc.

Hi,
I know that inside pom.xml there is a section that I can define
properties.
Is there a way to load properties from a property file / url?
I need this because I have a couple of pom.xml files that should load
the same property file.
Thanks!

The problem is that the couple of pom.xml file already have different
parents...
Can you give me a hint of how to implement this?(I need that when
loading - before build time - the properties will be available)
Thanks!

What prevents you to let these pom.xml files be children of a common pom.xml 
that contains your properties?

Since you can't use a shared parent, I'd go the settings.xml route
then with a single profile that you share between multiple projects.

You can activate multiple profiles during a build so I don't think
this will have any undesired effects on your process, and is probably
the best way forward for you.

My problem is that the property file should be used by users that are in
different countries...
