I'm attempting to use the buildnumber-maven-plugin ( http://mojo.codehaus.org/buildnumber-maven-plugin/<http://mojo.codehaus.org/buildnumber-maven-plugin/usage.html>) to give me a build based on a number that will increment when create my WAR file.
Although I define a <format> and <items> as shown in the usage page, all that shows up in buildNumber.properties is buildNumber=10 Is this to be expected? How can I get a formatted string? (Otherwise I have to use antrun to get at timestamp). -- "Hell hath no limits, nor is circumscrib'd In one self-place; but where we are is hell, And where hell is, there must we ever be" --Christopher Marlowe, *Doctor Faustus* (v, 121-24)
