I'm still trying to get my head around this and hope someone here can help.
When a SNAPSHOT build of our WAR files is deployed to Archiva, such as:
MyApp-1.0.0-SNAPSHOT.war
the "SNAPSHOT" gets replaced with a unique timestamp/version number, such
as:
MyApp-1.0.0-20130607.220924-2.war
I would like to have the exact version number (e.g.,
1.0.0-20130607.220924-2) in the MANIFEST.MF (or some other property file)
that can be made available in the application/service itself so we can
determine exactly what build is deployed to tomcat.
I've been glancing at the buildnumber-maven-plugin but I don't *think* it
will work because I need the unique SNAPSHOT version in the MANIFEST.MF to
correlate with the actual artifact timestamp in Archiva.
Has anyone done this and if so how?
Many thanks!
