Hi devs,
The is a very easy way to get information about a jar trough Package
class. Unfortunately we did not configured Maven to set most of the
standard fields that Package expect (Specification-* and
Implementation-* fields).
Once enabled it mean you can get the version of your module (or the
module of any class as easily) by doing
this.getClass().getPackage().getImplementationVersion().
See
https://maven.apache.org/shared/maven-archiver/examples/manifest.html
for more.
WDYT about enabling that in Maven Jar plugin ?
Here is my +1.
Ok for me, I don’t see any negative aspect. I imagine that you have a use case?
Thanks
