[jira] Created: (MNG-3578) Enhancements to plugin parameters

Enhancements to plugin parameters
---------------------------------

                 Key: MNG-3578
                 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-3578
             Project: Maven 2
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Ittay Dror


allow plugin parameters to reference other parameters. so, for example, i can have 'dir' and 'file' parameters, where 'file' is '${dir}/something'. then, if the user defines 'dir' in the plugin configuration in the pom, file uses the configured value.

also, leave unknown expressions as they are. so if 'file' is ${dir}/${unknown} it will be expanded to 'some/path/${unknown}'. this allows the mojo to further expand the parameter with runtime value without resorting to the use of '$$"
