Thanks, that's a simple solution that might even work in most of the
situations (perhaps excepting the release plugin, etc).
I also found a more complex way to access the versions of a dependency
using Groovy plugin. For those who are interested:
<plugins>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.codehaus.groovy.maven</groupId>
<artifactId>gmaven-plugin</artifactId>
<version>1.0-rc-5</version>
<executions>
<execution>
<phase>validate</phase>
<goals>
<goal>execute</goal>
</goals>
<configuration>
<source>
print
project.dependencies;
for ( i in
project.dependencies ) {
project.properties[ 'depinfo.' + i['groupId'] + '.' +
i['artifactId'] + '.version' ] = i['version'];
}
</source>
</configuration>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>
Then you can access ${depinfo.mygroup.myartifact.version}... But I'll try to
go with your suggestion.
