[ http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/ARCHETYPE-55?page=comments#action_74225 ] Milos Kleint commented on ARCHETYPE-55: ---------------------------------------
adding system properties hurts running maven in embedded environment. > Maven archetype plugin ignores system properties > ------------------------------------------------ > > Key: ARCHETYPE-55 > URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/ARCHETYPE-55 > Project: Maven Archetype > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: Plugin > Affects Versions: 1.0-alpha-4 > Reporter: Ceki Gulcu > Priority: Critical > > When it passes a property map to velocity context, the archetype plugin > passes the values of the properties basedir, package, > packageName, groupId, artifactId, and version ignoring other properties, in > particular system properties. In the context of our > project, we would like the archetype plugin to substitute the values of > system properties during the file generation based on templates. > It would take very little effort to add the system properties to the map > passed to Velocity context. > Moreover, only a single file, namely MavenArchetypeMojo.java in > maven-archetype-plugin/src/main/java/org/apache/maven/plugin/archetype/ > need to be modified. > As far as I understand it, the change can be accomplished with a single line > of code: > map.putAll(System.getProperties()); > Would you consider adding the above line to MavenArchetypeMojo.java? > Many thanks in advance, -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://jira.codehaus.org/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
