Christian Schulte commented on MNG-5900:
----------------------------------------
Just noticed myself that
{code}
<url final="true">${immediate.interpolation.due.to.final}</url>
{code}
is yet a different use-case. Let's just not call it {{this}}, please. Maybe
{{current}} just to avoid using a Java keyword?
> early interpolation: support ${this.*} as expression
> ----------------------------------------------------

> Key: MNG-5900
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-5900
> Project: Maven
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: Inheritance and Interpolation
> Reporter: Robert Scholte
> Fix For: Issues to be reviewed for 4.x
>
>
> Right now we have $\{project.\*} which always interpolates values based on
> the final project: "classical" interpolation is "late" interpolation. So it
> is not possible that parent poms can lock values, ie avoid child poms
> override. By adding $\{this} for "early" interpolation, it will be possible
> to have intermediate interpolation.
> If a pomfile depends on a parent, that parent will first resolve all
> $\{this.\*} values for itself. Once the fully inherited pom is there, all
> $\{project.\*} will be resolved.
