Hi Mick,
I personnaly had to define a different filter file regarding the
target environment, in my super POM :
...
<modules>
<module>../module1</module>
...
</modules>
...
<build>
<filters>
<filter>${parent.relativePath}/src/main/filters/filter-${env}.properties</filter>
</filters>
...
</build>
...
Each module defines the parent in its own POM :
<project>
<parent>
<groupId>...</groupId>
<artifactId>parent</artifactId>
<version>1.0-SNAPSHOT</version>
<relativePath>../parent</relativePath><!-- required for filters -->
</parent>
...
I had to use ${parent.relativePath} as Maven seems to resolve the
filter path for each module relative to its basedir.
I guess that ${parent.root} property is undefined in your case...
In my project, the ${env} property is set through the profile
mechanism, in my super
POM also :
...
<profiles>
<profile>
<id>local</id>
<properties>
<env>local</env>
</properties>
</profile>
...
</profiles>
...
I use 'mvn -P local' as command line instruction, then...
