Property file and Environment Vars
Hello,
I am using IntelliJ with code that uses a property file. The property contains something like this...
mavenVersion=${project.version}
svnRevision=${buildNumber}
logPath = ${log.path}
logFileName = ${log.filename}
logLevel = ${log.level}
logLayoutPattern = ${log.layout.pattern}
logDatePattern = ${log.date.pattern}
remoteLoggingEnabled = ${remote.logging.enabled}
logSocketRemoteHost = ${log.socket.remote.host}
logSocketPort = ${log.socket.port}
logSocketReconnectionDelay = ${log.socket.reconnection.delay}
logSocketLocationInfo = ${log.socket.location.info}
logSocketThreshold = ${log.socket.threshold}
The original project used Maven and the environment variables are set in the POM.XML. However, I am not using Maven in IntelliJ
My IntelliJ project copies the properties file to the classes directory, but does not do the substitutions. The compiled properties file is unchanged.
How do I get IntelliJ to do the substitutions and put the results on the classpath?
Thanks
Peter
Please sign in to leave a comment.
A bit more info...
I believe the Maven project is using the Maven Properites Plugin, and this plugin does the substitution
Here is the extract from the POM.XML file
<!-- apply filtering to properties files to load maven settings into java -->
<resources>
<resource>
<filtering>true</filtering>
<directory>src/main/resources</directory>
</resource>
</resources>
<testResources>
<testResource>
<filtering>true</filtering>
<directory>src/main/resources</directory>
</testResource>
</testResources>
So, does IntelliJ have something like this, or can it use Maven somehow?
Thanks
Peter
Hello Peter,
Which IntelliJ version are you using? I think the correct property substitution
was first implemented in Maia.

Coolness Dimitry!
I updated to 8.1.3 and the problem went away.
Thanks
