Archetype: escaping velocity properties.
Hi all,
I'm creating an archetype but I need to escape some values so that
velocity doesn't complain about them or even try and substitute them
However I tried \${value} as recommended in [1] but this gets put in the
final pom as \${value} and not ${value}
How do you escape these values so you can end up with ${value} in the
final pom that is generated from an archetype?
The only thing I could find was MRESOURCES-29 [2] but this seems to be
specifically for the resources plugin and not relevant to the Archetype
plugin.

Re: Archetype: escaping velocity properties.
Hi James, I place the following at the top of all my velocity-processed resources: #set( $symbol_pound = '#' ) #set( $symbol_dollar = '$' ) #set( $symbol_escape = '\' ) And then simply use those whenever I'd want to use the real symbol, which is special to velocity. This works for me in resources, remote-resources, and archetypes. -jesse On Tue, Jul 28, 2009 at 6:33 AM, Nord, Jamesjn...@nds.com wrote: I'm creating an archetype but I need to escape some values so that velocity doesn't complain about them or even try and substitute them -- There are 10 types of people in this world, those that can read binary and those that can not. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@maven.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@maven.apache.org
