Hi all,
I have a question regarding property interpolation and inheritance in
the case of site descriptors. I looks to my like these behave
differently than property interpolation and inheritance in the case of
the POM.
Suppose I have the following element within my parent project's site.xml
<bannerRight>
<name>${project.description}</name>
</bannerRight>
Now a child project's site:effective-site contains the following:
<bannerRight>
<name>Description of the *parent* project</name>
</bannerRight>
Why is that? Inherited elements in the POM (e.g., <url>) are subject to
property interpolation in the context of the child project rather than
the parent project. Why is this different for site descriptors? And is
there a workaround other than copy-and-pasting the site.xml into the
child project.
FWIW, I am using Maven 3.0.2, the maven-site-plugin version 3.0-beta-3,
and have attached my descriptor to the parent project; the attached
descriptor is already fully interpolated. :-(
Best wishes,
Andreas
