Re: [m2e-users] Accessing ${maven.build.timestamp} while running in eclipse 
Maven runs the build end-to-end one time. Eclipse keeps running
incremental builds on each resource change or project dependency change.
It is simply impossible to introduce build.timestamp inside Eclipse that
behaves the same way as during command line build.

If I'm understanding this correctly you can use this to get SOME
non-null value into your application when running under eclipse but you
can't get the ACTUAL time of the build there using m2e.

I was looking (hoping) for a way to force eclipse to do the resource
filtering as maven does.

    Constant?  It's the time the build happened.  Please give me an
    example of how this can work.

    Thanks.

        The easiest is to introduce pom profile that defines the

            Based on

http://stackoverflow.com/__questions/13228472/how-to-__acces-maven-build-timestamp-__for-resource-filtering


<http://stackoverflow.com/questions/13228472/how-to-acces-maven-build-timestamp-for-resource-filtering>




            which refers to

            http://java.dzone.com/tips/__stamping-version-number-and
            <http://java.dzone.com/tips/stamping-version-number-and>

            which in turn refers to a bug in maven

            I define the following property in my pom

            <timestamp>${maven.build.__timestamp}</timestamp>
            <maven.build.timestamp.format>__yyyy-MM-dd
            HH:mm</maven.build.timestamp.__format>

            and then in a property resource, define

            build.date=${timestamp}.

            This works fine when I build using Maven explicitly, but
            does not work
            when running the application from within eclipse.

            Is there some way I can make m2e do this resource filtering
            when running
            code from eclipse?

            Thanks
