Thanks Brian,

very useful!

Not related, but as well useful, I use maven's build timestamp with defines to 
get it in AS3 in the following way:

In my case, I’m currently using a timestamp to try to avoid caching. Feel free 
to replace with a version, etc.

This will update the template and build time.

  <properties>
    <timestamp>${maven.build.timestamp}</timestamp>
  </properties>

Subject: [EXTERNAL] CSS & JS file versioning

Hi All,

Is there any possibility defined that lets me define my own placeholders in the 
html-template?
For example im using an html template with the following line

    <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="${application}.css">

Is there anything helpful already existing in the compiler so I can add a 
version to my css like so:


href="${application}?v=12345678" />

Thank!
