Nick Boldt closed JBIDE-18985.
------------------------------
    Resolution: Won't Fix


Won't fix, because we use jgit timestamps now, so there are no more BUILD_ALIAS occurrences left (except in a few select places).

> Based on discussion {quote}Do you have a test for "expected BUILD_ALIAS value in feature qualifiers" ?{quote}
> Some tests we can run (forgive this pseudocode):
> {code}
> // for builds up to a x.y.0 release
> if ((BUILD_ALIAS in (Alpha*, Beta*, CR*) and jbosstools.version endsWith(".0")) {
>   // make sure all features end in the same BUILD_ALIAS, or Final
>   // if anything doesn't match WARN (want a build to be yellow, not red)
> }
> {code}
> {code}
> // for GA builds and followup maintenance
> if ((BUILD_ALIAS in (Final, GA)) {
>   // make sure all com.* features end in GA, and all others end in Final
>   // if anything doesn't match FAIL (want a build to be red)
> }
> {code}
> Once we have that coded, perhaps into a maven enforcer plugin?, we can fine tune it for cases like where Freemarker does an update in Alpha and then does nothing for 4 months, waiting for CR/GA.
> Should they have to keep updating their root pom just so the BUILD_ALIAS matches and they're building against the correct target platform?
> Or, should their code remain dormant, but their job's config.xml be updated to override the BUILD_ALIAS & TARGET_PLATFORM values to the correct versions?
