Thanks, this is a good point and might also help explain some other problems
we've had.
This will very likely cause my novice Maven 2 skills to show, but I can't
just change:
---
<dependency>
<groupId>Squid</groupId>
<artifactId>dbawrappers</artifactId>
<version>${build.version}</version>
</dependency>
---
to:
---
<dependency>
<groupId>Squid</groupId>
<artifactId>dbawrappers</artifactId>
<version>${build_version}</version>
</dependency>
---
Can I? Won't that break the desired "If no version is specified, use
SNAPSHOT' behavior I'm trying to override for versioned builds?
Thanks,
