Lack of error checks on profiles
--------------------------------
Key: MNG-3641
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-3641
Project: Maven 2
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Profiles
Affects Versions: 2.0.9
Reporter: Kohsuke Kawaguchi
DefaultProfileManager performs no error checks on the profile IDs So If I
specify bogus profile IDs from plugins (like {{mvn -P no-such-profile}}), Maven
doesn't complain, and it just runs as if nothing was specified. This is very
error prone.
Also, I've seen some documentation that says deactivating a profile is "-P
!profile". As far as I can tell from the code, this is wrong, but because of
the lack of error check, such usage just gets ignored, and the user is left
confused as to why the profile isn't deactivated.
