Thanks for picking this up quickly! Here is something strange: When I run the build locally, replacement does not work at all (neither in *.html or in *.properties) and finally Ant tests fail:

 [java] Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: ${jacoco/runtime/package/name}/Offline
 [java] 	at org.jacoco.ant.TestTarget.$jacocoInit(TestTarget.java)

My local environment was:

• Java 8u181
• Maven 3.5.3
• mvn clean install

Any proposal what I can do on my side to investigate?

In line 94 of maven.htmlthere I found one more @substitution.

Fixed and double-checked all remaining occurrences of regex @[a-z.]++@ and remaining ones in org.jacoco.examples/ and jacoco-maven-plugin.test/it/ do not require change.

This is very weird - I just checked with Maven 3.5.3 and JDK 8u181 and it works on my side.
So for the time being I don't have ideas. Maybe you can try without Eclipse from command line after cleaning local Maven repository and with fresh clone into new directory

rm -rf ~/.m2/repository/org/jacoco/
git clone https://github.com/jacoco/jacoco.git
cd jacoco
mvn install

?

@Godin Ok, I found the cause: When I build in ./org.jacoco.buildas working directory keyword replacement fails. When repo root ./ is the working directory (and I use /pom.xml) everything is good.

Do you wan't to investigate (and fix) this or do we require workspace root as working directory for build?

@marchof weird again, because

cd org.jacoco.build
mvn install

works for me. So my best wild guess remains the same - are you using Eclipse Maven Launcher or command line?

Looks like this some local problem on my side only.

@Godin Ok, looks like running Eclipse kicks-in and copies original resources to target.
