Mike Youngstrom commented on MNG-1775:
--------------------------------------
I am experiencing the same problem but for system properties too.
Below does not work.
mvn package -Dbuild.env=prod
<file>
<exists>src/${build.env}/webapp/WEB-INF/web.xml</exists>
</file>
If I activate based on the existence of build.env being prod that does work.
This works also.
<file>
<exists>src/prod/webapp/WEB-INF/web.xml</exists>
</file>
It appears it's just not parsing system properties.

> Key: MNG-1775
> URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-1775
> Project: Maven 2
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Inheritence and Interpolation
> Affects Versions: 2.0, 2.0.1
> Environment: Linux
> Reporter: Eric Andresen
> Fix For: 2.0.5
>
>
> I have a profile specified in the pom.xml of a project. It is inteded to be
> activated based on the presence or absence of a file, using the <file>
> profile activator.
> The profiles are simple:
> <profile>
> <id>metis</id>
> <activation>
> <file><missing>${basedir}/../build.properties</missing></file>
> </activation>
> <build>
>
> <filters><filter>${basedir}/../build.properties.metis</filter></filters>
> </build>
> </profile>
> <profile>
> <id>dev</id>
> <activation>
> <file><exists>${basedir}/../build.properties</exists></file>
> </activation>
> <build>
>
> <filters><filter>${basedir}/../build.properties</filter></filters>
> </build>
> </profile>
> The problem comes in with ${basedir} -- it isn't being expanded for purposes
> of evaluating the file. It's trying to look for a file named
> "${basedir}/../build.properties", rather than
> "/home/joe/projectX/projY/../build.properties"; as a result, the "missing"
> directive is always true, and the dev profile is never activated. When the
> filter path is evaluated, the ${basedir} property *is* evaluated, however.
