Maik Richey commented on MNG-4846: ---------------------------------- But then there is no difference to {code} ... <activation> <activeByDefault>false</activeByDefault> <property> <name>!somePropertyName</name> </property> </activation> ... {code} and make no sense for me. By specifying <name>somePropertyName</name> I would expect that property being there but not having the value "Value". That makes the difference. To be more precise: What I would like to do is defining some properties as default. The same properties should be used when activating a profile by property "env" and the value "target". Different properties should be used - and are defined in another profile - when specifying the property "env" with a value other than "target" to activate that profile. So the only way, rather than creating a profile for each possible value, is the way I tried to manage it and that's the way how it should work in my opinion. > Profile activated accidentially > ------------------------------- > > Key: MNG-4846 > URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-4846 > Project: Maven 2 & 3 > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Profiles > Affects Versions: 2.2.1 > Reporter: Maik Richey > Assignee: Benjamin Bentmann > Priority: Critical > > When you define a profile activated like > {code} > ... > <profiles> > <profile> > <id>someCase</id> > <activation> > <activeByDefault>false</activeByDefault> > <property> > <name>somePropertyName</name> > <value>!Value</value> > </property> > </activation> > ... > </profile> > </profiles> > ... > {code} > this profile will also be activated when no property/profile is defined on > the command line.
