Benjamin Bentmann closed MNG-5126.
----------------------------------
Resolution: Not A Bug
Assignee: Benjamin Bentmann
{{$\{parent.\*\}}} is not a supported expression, what you actually want is
{{$\{project.parent.name\}}}.
In general though, expressions of the form {{$\{project.parent.*}}} are a bad
practice as they rely on a certain build state and do not generally work
throughout the POM, giving rise to surprises. Instead, consider to define a
dedicated property {{myWarName}} or such in the parent POM, that you initialize
with the desired value, and referencing that property where needed.
