I just did something like this. Just use the maven assembly plugin to
package your app as a zip, tar or whatever. It can filter ${ in the
files. It is documented as not liking . In the names though. Steps (I
am on my iPod so this is not 100% accurate):
1) add a poroperty to your pom.xml:
<currentVersion>${pom.version}</currentVersion>
2) add a files tag to your assembly descriptor:
<files><file><filtered>true</filtered><source>src/main/assembly/runapp.sh</source></file>
3) then just use ${curruentVersion} in that file
