Subject: Properties: backslashes in pathname on Windows
Is there a way in Maven 2.0.9 to end up with forward slashes in a
file/directory pathname on the Windows platform when filtering a property such
as ${project.parent.basedir}?
I need to supply a file URL for a Hibernate URL specified in a persistence.xml
configuraton file. The following property statement from a persistence.xml file
gets filtered as a resource file from src/test/resources into the test-classes
directory under target.
However on Windows the pathname ends up including backslashes which don't play
well with Hibernate. The JPA hibernate entity manager cannot resolve a URL with
backslashes in it.
The XML element in questions looks more or less like this:
property name=hibernate.connection.url
value=jdbc:hsqldb:file:///${project.parent.basedir}/target/hsql/testdb/
Suggestions on how to accomplish this would be appreciated.
TIA!

Re: Properties: backslashes in pathname on Windows
I found a Maven plugin at Google that can replace tokens which I applied to
the filtered xml file.
This does remove the backslashes, however I think a much better solution
would be for Maven to have a simple and direct means of obtaining a file:URL
with correct form via a Maven project property.
Perhaps something like ${project.parent.basedir.url}? At this stage a
feature such as this might be more relevant as a Maven 3.0 addition?
Here is an example of using the maven-replacer-plugin configuration that can
replace tokens:
plugin
groupIdbakersoftware/groupId
artifactIdmaven-replacer-plugin/artifactId
version0.0.9/version
executions
execution
phasetest-compile/phase
goals
goalreplace/goal
/goals
configuration
filetarget/test-classes/persistence.xml/file
token\\/token
value//value
/configuration
/execution
/executions
/plugin
