Brett Porter updated MNG-2557:
------------------------------

    Fix Version/s:     (was: 2.x)
                   3.1

I don't think this should be profiles deactivating others, but rather a better 
set of conditionals (particularly around 'environments'). The classic example 
is trying to do several combinations of cargo setups for different platform 
combinations. Mixins might help.

I prefer to push as much into properties and avoid profile combinations, but it 
isn't always possible if the declarations need to differ.

> The current support for profiles is somewhat limited and this issue report 
> proposes some enhancements to profiles for ease and flexibility of use.
> Enhancement #1: Make it possible to have profiles that mutually exclude each 
> other. A profile should be able to exclude one or more other profiles.
> Example of usage: We have a couple of profiles for databas settings (MSSQL, 
> PostgreSQL and Derby). Only one of these profiles should be able to be active 
> at the same time. Today, we can't express this in the profiles section.
> Enhancement #2: Make it possible to deactivate profiles from the command line.
> Example of usage: User and/or project has a set of profiles that are activate 
> per default. The user wants to temporary disable on or more of these (by 
> temporary I mean for one execution).
> Possible syntax might be: mvn -PsomeProfile=inactive|false|no or perhaps a 
> separate command line switch.
