You can set up profiles defining properties in a separate profile.xml file.

Why do you not want them in the pom.xml itself? Things like db connection properties are generally associated with a particular deployment environment. Therefore I set up a profile corresponding to each environment, and place its specific properties within it.

I have the same question - How do I inject properties from an external file into pom.xml?

I have use case where I need to inject some DB connection properties into pom.xml and I don't want to define them in the pom itself. I noticed some discussion about properties-maven-plugin on mojo-dev lists but that plugin isn't a part of Mojo project yet.

TIA,
Rahul

You can include <properties> inside pom.xml itself.
