Benjamin Bentmann commented on MNG-4917: ---------------------------------------- No, as can be seen from the example POM I provided. You should also keep in mind that your POM by design uses a profile that only Maven 3.0 properly activates. > Profile not active even though it has activeByDefault set to true > ----------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MNG-4917 > URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-4917 > Project: Maven 2 & 3 > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Profiles > Affects Versions: 3.0 > Reporter: Benson Margulies > Assignee: Benjamin Bentmann > Attachments: pom.xml > > > I've got a parent pom with a profile with > <activeByDefault>true</activeByDefault>. > You can retrieve it for yourself via git clone > git://git.apache.org/webservices-xmlschema.git. > The problem is the sourcecheck profile in the parent pom. > running mvn -Psourcecheck works as expected, but running without the -P fails > to activate the profile. > the help plugin, I think, has separate problems in this area, or perhaps it's > not supposed to look at -P? -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://jira.codehaus.org/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
