[jbossts-issues] [JBoss JIRA] Commented: (JBTM-259) Make sure the build system uses the version number

Mark Little commented on JBTM-259:
----------------------------------

Prior to JBoss, there were two ways of setting the properties:

(i) one of the ant rules asked you the relevant questions on the command line before doing the build.

(ii) you could add the values to the product.properties file and ant would source them from there.

Either is fine, but I'd say that at least (ii) is necessary.

> Within the code we have some Info.java classes that are supposed to be able to give back important build-time information. Looks like that is being lost or incomplete these days:
