We have a single file called aim_version.properties. In it is a string @VERSION@ which is replaced with a property that I get from the command line. I am building an assembly, and I need to change the @VERSION@ string with a value of a property that I either get from the command line, or I get as the default property in the pom.xml.
I looked up the assembly descriptor, and it tells me how to do filtering via an already built properties file, but I don't want to do that. Instead, I simply want to take the value of the property and filter this one file with that property. How do I do that while I build the assembly? I know how to specify this one file when building the assembly, and I see how to do the filtering if the value I want is in a properties file, but I need to take the value off the command line. -- David Weintraub qazw...@gmail.com
