------------------------------------
Hi Dirk
There is a major flaw in the logic of your patch. You assume that child
projects are only ever built in the context of their parents. That goes against
a very fundamental Maven rule that you have to able to build sub-projects on
their own. So in your example if you go to project 'bar1' and build from there
your patch won't work anymore.
We had a similar problem in our project setup. The solution we used was to put
all properties files in a separate 'settings' project. I then pimped the
properties-maven-plugin a bit, so you can also specify properties files inside
dependencies. The code is not polished for public release yet, but if you're
interested you can drop me a mail and I can send you the files.
> read-project-properties in parent pom does not make the properties accessible

> Declaring a property in a parent pom (reactor build) makes it available for
> all child modules. Reading in properties using the read-project-properties
> goal fails to make the properties read from the file available in child
> modules.
> I have attached two sets of poms demonstrating the bug: if you build the
> contents of projects-with-property.zip the final name of the baz1 jar will
> include the value of the declared property. If you build the contents of
> projects-with-plugin.zip the final name of the bar1 jar will not include the
> value of the read property.
