Could com.jboss.devstudio.core.central plugin inherit values in currentversion.properties from parent & root pom instead of hardcoding it? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Key: JBDS-3048 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBDS-3048 Project: Developer Studio (JBoss Developer Studio) Issue Type: Bug Security Level: Public(Everyone can see) Components: build, central Affects Versions: 8.0.0.Beta2 Reporter: Nick Boldt Assignee: Fred Bricon Fix For: 8.0.0.Beta3 I see a new file was added after Beta2, on Apr 22: {code:title=https://github.com/jbdevstudio/jbdevstudio-product/commit/30bec7071c11b2bfd941bde70093b5471af408cb#diff-62d4ce348c909d0dbe2c122f6b51d959R32} default.version=8.0.0.Beta2 version=${devstudio.version} {code} Since this file will need to be manually updated w/ every milestone, I was wondering if we could simply pull the value out of the parent pom & root pom, which inherit these values: {code} ${project version} = 8.0.0-SNAPSHOT ${BUILD_ALIAS} = Beta3 {code} Then with some minor string manipulation you can produce the correct string, 8.0.0.Beta3. (I have maven/ant code to do this, but you're in Java so YMMV.)
