Karl Heinz Marbaise moved MNG-6094 to MNGSITE-293:
--------------------------------------------------
Affects Version/s: (was: 3.3.9)
Key: MNGSITE-293 (was: MNG-6094)
Project: Maven Project Web Site (was: Maven)
> Maven Profile activation (via property) bug (or misleading doc): profile
> active even if property doesn't exist
> --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: MNGSITE-293
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNGSITE-293
> Project: Maven Project Web Site
> Issue Type: Bug
> Environment: Windows 7
> Reporter: A. Di Matteo
>
> Based on the following profile:
> {code}
> <profile>
> <id>test-profile</id>
> <activation>
> <property>
> <name>something</name>
> <value>!a</value>
> </property>
> </activation>
> ...
> </profile>
> {code}
> And not setting the something property, the profile is always active (by
> default). This is in contradiction with the official Maven profile
> documentation on the !true value example:
> {quote}
> The following profile will be activated when the system property "debug" is
> defined with a value which is not "true".
> {quote}
> A bug or misleading documentation?
> If the mechanism is still implemented by the SystemPropertyProfileActivator,
> deprecated but not documented by which componenet it was replaced, if already
> replaced, then the (potential) bug is confirmed by the following shortened
> code:
> ActivationProperty property = activation.getProperty();
> {code}
> if ( property != null ) {
> String name = property.getName();
> boolean reverseName = false;
> String sysValue = properties.getProperty( name );
> String propValue = property.getValue();
> if ( StringUtils.isNotEmpty( propValue ) ) {
> boolean reverseValue = false;
> if ( propValue.startsWith( "!" ) ) {
> reverseValue = true;
> propValue = propValue.substring( 1 );
> }
> // we have a value, so it has to match the system value...
> boolean result = propValue.equals( sysValue );
> if ( reverseValue ) {
> return !result;
> }
> else {
> return result;
> }
> }
> }
> {code}
> The issue is: the sysValue real property value by the defined name is not
> taken into account, it will be null in this specific case. However, its check
> on equals will return false, but then the further check on reverseValue would
> turn it to true, regardless of the existence of the name property and
> effectively activating the profile in this case.
