How to set version when deploying gae java?

Question

Since Intellij Idea IDE gae deployment plugin does not work, I have to use mvn appengine:update. It always deploy to version 1, ignoring version in appengine-web.xm

Answer 1

Another way is, don't add anything on the app engine plugin as it is hard to changes each time the pom.xml better pass the version information from the command line, like this

mvn clean package appengine:deploy -Dapp.deploy.version=your-version-here
