It might help if I point out WHY I wish to do this.
My POM has its version defined as:
<version>9.2.0-build-${continuum.project.nextBuild.number}</version>
The mvn assembly:assembly invocation will only work if a value is
specified for this property. When evecuting mvn from outside Continuum
I must provide a dummy value. (The assumed value of "null" is
sufficient to build the artifact but causes assembly to fail).
My intention is to define the version thus:
<version>9.2.0-SNAPSHOT</version>
So that the POM can be built from outside Continuum, but then have
continuum pass
-Dproject.version=9.2.0-build-${continuum.project.nextBuild.number} when
it invokes mvn.
Any offers?
Thanks, Robin.

Subject: Build Definition Arguments
Hi All
My project uses Maven2 and the build definition I have created is for
goals "assembly:assembly". I'm interested in more information about the
"Arguments" field on the build definition panel.
I'd like to send mvn an argument of the form:
-Dproject.version=9.2.0-build-${continuum.project.nextBuild.number}
Of course this is a "VM Argument". Does continuum support VM Arguments
such as this and, if it does, must I provide the -D qualifier?
Thanks, Robin.
