-----------------------------------
Could somebody triage this?
> Cannot resolve active profile name at build time
> ------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: MNG-5271
> URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-5271
> Project: Maven 2 & 3
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Profiles
> Affects Versions: 3.0
> Environment: Mac OS 10.6
> Reporter: Richard Bone
>
> I have a maven profile defined in my pom. It's not active by default, so I
> run -P <profilename>.
> When the profile is running, I want to construct a path that includes the
> name of the profile. I've looked online and it appears that
> http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2012198/maven-can-i-reference-profile-id-in-profile-definition
> would have the answer. Alas, it doesn't work for me at build time. If I do
> a mvn help:evaluate -P <profilename> and use
> ${projects.activeProfiles[0].id}, I get the value I would expect. When I run
> in the build, though, it doesn't resolve and just uses the literal value in
> the path.
