I am using the buildnumber plugin successfully to tag my assembly releases
with a timestamp (for example, for assembly, <finalName>${
project.artifactId}-${project.version}-r${buildNumber}</finalName>), just as
Greg suggested. Need to make sure to invoke the plugin create goal, for
example mvn buildnumber:create assembly:assembly.
Thanks'

Kim,
You can use the maven-buildnumber-plugin to get a timestamp, as follows:
<plugin>
<groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-buildnumber-plugin</artifactId>
<version>0.9.4</version>
<configuration>
<format>{0,date,yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss}</format>
<items>
<item>timestamp</item>
</items>
<doCheck>false</doCheck>
<doUpdate>false</doUpdate>
</configuration>
<executions>
<execution>
<phase>validate</phase>
<goals>
<goal>create</goal>
</goals>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>
The timestamp is put into the ${buildNumber} property. You can also adjust
the format of the timestamp to suit your requirements. Take a look at
http://commons.ucalgary.ca/projects/maven-buildnumber-plugin/howto.htmlfor
information on how it works.

Greg J.

The plug-in will allow you to use timestamp tagging to tag your builds. I
am
sorry but I don't think you can access the timestamp property directly in
the pom itself. Why do you need to do that anyway?

Thanks for the quick reply, but what does that do, exactly? In which
property does it make the timestamp available? I tried ${timestamp} after
adding that snippet to my pom, but it was empty. What am I missing?
Thanks,
Jim

You can use maven scm plugin:
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-scm-plugin</artifactId>
<configuration>
<addTimestamp>true</addTimestamp>
<tag>build</tag>
<timestampFormat>yyyyMMddHHmm</timestampFormat>
</configuration>
</plugin>

Do I really have to write an entire plugin just to make a timestamp
available as a maven property? That's what Google is telling me, but I
wanted to make sure before I went to all that trouble.
Thanks,
Jim
