Summary: Incorrect statement regarding profiles activated with -P
Key: MNGSITE-222
URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNGSITE-222
Project: Maven Project Web Site
Issue Type: Bug
Environment:
http://maven.apache.org/guides/introduction/introduction-to-profiles.html
Reporter: SebbASF
Website as above says:
{quote}
Profiles can be explicitly specified using the -P CLI option.
This option takes an argument that is a comma-delimited list of profile-ids to
use. When this option is specified, no profiles other than those specified in
the option argument will be activated.

The last sentence above is not true.
As proof, try the following:
{code}
mvn -f <apache-parent-pom> help:active-profiles -Papache-release
{code}
The output is
{code}
Active Profiles for Project 'org.apache:apache:pom:16':
The following profiles are active:
- apache-release (source: org.apache:apache:16)
- maven-3 (source: org.apache:apache:16)
