We're using it in a few places on the project I'm working on. We have
the following for example, in our project.properties:
"
maven.xdoc.version = ${pom.name}-${pom.currentVersion}
# Override default installation directory for ejb jars in order to put
the
# ejbs in the jar artfiact repository directory.
maven.ejb.install.dir=${maven.repo.local}/${pom.artifactDirectory}/jars
"
The second is obviously due to a problem in a plugin. But that should be
a typical use cases. There are lots of small problems in the existing
plugins where this makes sense.
