Peter Cummuskey commented on MNG-5698:
--------------------------------------
This issue partially duplicates MNG-3525, though the proxy configuration makes
it unique.
> Declare proxies and mirrors in profiles

> Key: MNG-5698
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-5698
> Project: Maven
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Settings
> Environment: All
> Reporter: Edwin Wiles
>
> There appear to be 140 issues regarding proxy configuration. None of them
> appear to have been adequately dealt with.
> There should be a solution, internal to Maven, preferably in the settings.xml
> file, that allows the user to either automatically, or at worst with a -P
> profile argument, to switch between proxies and mirrors.
> It seems the easiest way to achieve this is to allow proxies and mirrors into
> profiles, the same as properties and repositories are now.
> USE CASE: I am presently dealing with an environment where company A has a
> mirror, proxy, and VPN access; company B has a mirror, proxy, and VPN access;
> and the user may be working from either company's office, either company's
> VPN, or from home without using either company's resources.
> Just making proxies and mirrors acceptable in profiles would go a VERY long
> way to solving this problem.
