Description

Hello...
The original bug ( http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-1992
) was marked as fixed in 2.1.0, and 3.0-alpha-1

I used a slightliy modifed version of the test case described in http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-3417
to understand what I thought i was seeing...

It still seems not to work as described in the original bug.

I tried two things...

1) tried resource filtering (running > mvn -Dtest.property='overridden' clean verify < and catting test.xt as described in the original bug report.
same result.

Then I tried updating my maven resources plugin to 2.3 – running with maven 3.0-alpha-2 (see modified pom.xml, below). Stil no luck.

2) next i tried
mvn -e -Dtest.result=haha help:effective-pom

the property setting given for test.result was still default.

So it seems like there are two failure modes . one for resource filtering, and one for interpolation process that does not involve filtering..
or maybe they have they same root cause. In any case it seems not to work still (at least on windoze).

thanks !
