------------------------------------
Yup, Robert is correct. This is the way it's supposed to work.

> Project: Maven 2 & 3
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 3.2.1
> Reporter: Thomas Beauvais
> Attachments: pom.xml, settings.xml

> Profile properties in pom.xml don't override profile properties in
> settings.xml.
> The goal is to provide team developers with a single settings.xml with useful
> profiles. Then, each project will override profile properties if necessary.
> In the following example we want to switch the $\{weblogic.host} property
> when enabled in the IDE or from the command line via: mvn -P stage
> What is curious is that overriding works when the profile being override
> exists in the same place as the profile that is doing the overriding. What
> this means is if all the profiles are in either the pom.xml OR settings.xml
> then everything works as expected.
> Normally, if the "stage" profile isn't actually present in the pom.xml I
> would get this:
> {noformat}[WARNING] The requested profile "stage" could not be activated
> because it does not exist.{noformat}
> But there is no warning about the profile "stage" because it does actually
> existing. The "stage" profile does exist in the pom.xml!
> Attached are sample pom.xml and settings.xml
> The command:
> {{mvn -P stage generate-resources}}
> The current output is:
> {noformat}
> [INFO] --- maven-antrun-plugin:1.3:run (default) @ simple-web ---
> [INFO] Executing tasks
> [echo] WebLogic: localhost
> [INFO] Executed tasks
> {noformat}
> The expected output is:
> {noformat}
> [INFO] --- maven-antrun-plugin:1.3:run (default) @ simple-web ---
> [INFO] Executing tasks
> [echo] WebLogic: 192.168.0.123
> [INFO] Executed tasks
> {noformat}
