1) Let maven set version in MANIFEST.MF
2)
    // Find VERSION from a package.
    public static final String VERSION;
    static{
        String version = null;
        try { version = JawaBotApp.class.getPackage().getImplementationVersion(); } catch( Throwable ex ){ log.warn("Couldn't get version."); }
        if( version == null ) version = "";
        VERSION = StringUtils.defaultString( version, "" );
     }

Hi all,
printing something like the following:
INFO: Infinispan version: Infinispan 'Ursus' 4.2.1.FINAL

is very useful when debugging user's issues.

I am interested in how project's do this. I can create a Version.java but if maven releases do not change the value, then it is pointless.

Jesper says:
===========
(10:32:45 AM) jpederse: anilsaldhana: our Version.java is generated as part of the build - and the version identifiers substituted
(10:33:32 AM) jpederse: anilsaldhana: http://viewvc.jboss.org/cgi-bin/viewvc.cgi/jbossas/projects/jboss-jca/trunk/core/src/main/java/org/jboss/jca/Version.java.in?revision=108434&view=markup
===========
