System properties cannot be set from Profiles or Settings.xml
-------------------------------------------------------------
Key: MNG-2532
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-2532
Project: Maven 2
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 2.0.4
Environment: Windows XP
Reporter: Peter Pilgrim
Hi All
With the maven-antrun-plugin in Maven 2.0.4 is it possibly to define a system
property. Instead of me doing this all the time.
mvn install -Duser.install.root="C:\Program Files\IBM\WebSphere\AppServer"
For more info on the context see my blog
http://www.jroller.com/page/peter_pilgrim?entry=how_to_configure_xemacs_http
Specifically the system properties is not set up following to either a
profiles.xml or settings.xml file by Maven 2
Possibly the system property I need is not also transfered to the Ant task
using the maven-antrun-plugin.
/* profiles.xml */
<profiles>
<profile>
<id>user-install-root</id>
<activation>
<property>
<name>!user.install.root</name>
</property>
</activation>
<properties>
<user.install.root>C:\\Program
Files\\IBM\\WebSphere\\AppServer</user.install.root>
</properties>
</profile>
</profiles>
Running mvn help:active-profiles, however, does show that the profile has been
read.
