Class ProjectProperties

java.lang.Object
  de.smartics.util.test.properties.ProjectProperties

public final class ProjectProperties
     
     

      
      extends 
      
      Object
     
     

A mapping from project-defined keys to values dependent on project properties.

This can be used in a Maven environment to derive GAV strings from POM dependencies, where the version numbers are defined as properties.

Place a file named the root folder of the class path and provide a mapping from free-to-choose keys to GAV strings like this:

 smartics-properties-core=de.smartics.properties:smartics-properties-core:${smartics-properties-core.version}
 

Using filtering to resolve the properties like smartics-properties-core.version.

 {
   @source
   protected static final ProjectProperties PROJECT_PROPERTIES =
       new ProjectProperties(MyClass.class);
 }
 

Then you can fetch GAV strings resolved with the current version number from the POM by your keys.
