I plan on looking at the release plugin eventually, but I can only handle so much new info at once. :) I want to keep the POM's in sync when working on a snapshot too, so I just want to have to manually change less properties when I start work on the next version, and when it comes time to release too...
I had: <project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0"> <parent> <groupId>mil.jfcom.cie.portal</groupId> <artifactId>cdcie-project-portletframework</artifactId> <version>1.2</version> </parent> <modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion> <artifactId>cdcie-portlet-portletframeworksample</artifactId> <packaging>war</packaging> <name>Portlet Framework Sample</name> <version>${project.parent.version}</version> .... </project> Then I get the following error: [INFO] ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- [INFO] BUILD FAILURE [INFO] ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- [INFO] Reason: Error building project from 'c:\workspace\PortletFramework\sample\pom.xml': mil.jfcom.cie.portal:cdcie-po rtlet-portletframeworksample:war:${project.parent.version} So, is this a bug? -Stephen On 10/5/05, Brett Porter <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > You can, but it is what you give in the <parent> element, you can't omit > that. > > If you need a tool to keep versions in sync in a multiproject, check the > release plugin. > > - Brett > > Stephen Duncan wrote: > > >But you can't do this?: > > > ><version>${project.parent.version}</version> > > > >Sure would be nice to be able to keep my versions in sync more easily > >if I don't want to bother independently versioning > >modules/sub-projects. > > > >-Stephen > > > > > > > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
