Re: [tycho-user] tycho-versions-plugin does not replace ${sub.dir} prope

[Alexander Aumann <a.aumann@xxxxxx>]

Hi Igor,

you are probably right that using properties in these elements does not 
provide that much value, as these directories will rarely change and, if 
so, find/replace on one pom.xml is not that much of a chore.

The problem mainly was that I somehow thought that the version-update 
not working was due to some other issue, like unmatching version 
numbers, and that it took some time for me to find the real source of 
trouble.

Regards,
Alexander
