Hi Carlo,

You may want to take a look at Maven 2's filters :-)

Hi!
In the Maven2 documentation (http://maven.apache.org/pom.html#Properties) I read that properties can come from

  1. env.X: Prefixing a variable with "env." will return the shell’s
     environment variable. For example, ${env.PATH} contains the $path
     environment variable (%PATH% in Windows).
  2. project.x: A dot (.) notated path in the POM will contain the
     corresponding element’s value. For example:
     <project><version>1.0</version></project> is accessible via
     ${project.version}.
  3. settings.x: A dot (.) notated path in the settings.xml will
     contain the corresponding element’s value. For example:
     <settings><offline>false</offline></settings> is accessible via
     ${settings.offline}.
  4. Java System Properties: All properties accessible via
     java.lang.System.getProperties() are available as POM properties,
     such as ${java.home}.
  5. x: Set within a <properties /> element or an external files, the
     value may be used as ${someVar}.

but I could not find any reference on how to read properties from an external file (as it is mentioned in item 5) and avoid putting them in the POM <properties> section.

Is there any way to do that like it was possible with Maven 1.x (build.properties and project.properties files)?
Thanks for any help!
Carlo
