Description

I'm trying to use filters along with ${basedir} to setup my unit test Derby database. Derby must have a unique directory to build its database in and this becomes a problem in multi-module builds.

Currently I'm doing this:

<bean id="wsf.storage.dataSource" class="org.apache.commons.dbcp.BasicDataSource">
  <property name="driverClassName"><value>org.apache.derby.jdbc.EmbeddedDriver</value></property>
  <property name="url"><value>jdbc:derby:target/test/testdb/${pom.artifactId};create=true</value></property>
</bean>

But I'd like to do this:

<bean id="wsf.storage.dataSource" class="org.apache.commons.dbcp.BasicDataSource">
  <property name="driverClassName"><value>org.apache.derby.jdbc.EmbeddedDriver</value></property>
  <property name="url"><value>jdbc:derby:${basedir}/target/test/testdb;create=true</value></property>
</bean>

When I try to do the latter, I get this:

java.lang.ClassCastException: java.io.File
