Benson Margulies reassigned CXF-3051:
-------------------------------------
Assignee: Benson Margulies
> Rename all POM properties that change dependency versions
> ---------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: CXF-3051
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CXF-3051
> Project: CXF
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Build system
> Affects Versions: 2.2.10, 2.3.0
> Reporter: Benson Margulies
> Assignee: Benson Margulies
>
> The maven gang discourages:
> <version>${blah}</version>
> One reason is that maven does *not* resolve these references before
> publishing a pom in the release process. Our released poms contain property
> definitions and dependencies that use them.
> If, for example, a user innocently create a setting for jetty.version that
> is, oh, for jetty version 8, maven will forget, entirely that we carefully
> declared a dependency on version 7.
> The fix we can live with is to make all of these properties have names of the
> form cxf-*, so that other people won't accidently set them.
