profile activation

[raymond <rd...@domingo.nl>]

Hello,

I like to activate profiles from within a profile. (Or is there an other way
to achieve my goal ?)

For example I have multiple profiles which are activated in different
circumstances. Sometimes none of them are activated and sometimes more are
activated:
- integration-test-tomcat-profile
- integration-test-jetty-profile
- my-personal-special-profile
- company-special-profile
- exotic-verry-unknown-profile
- buildserver-profile

Our buildserver manager doesn't know any details about these profiles, he
just knows our buildserver-profile should be trigger when the buildserver
builds the project.

Normally I would use a property to activate the profile, but these profile
already have property activation. When I add a second property I have to set
both of them (or can I use OR somehow?), but my buildadmin only knows about
one. I don't wan't hem to know about the other properties.

It is up to the developer of the project to correctly configure the
'buildserver-profile'. This is why would like to configure (add) active
profiles from the 'buildserver-profile'.

I tried something like (in MyMojo):
public void execute() throws MojoExecutionException {
...
                Profile p = getProfile(allProfiles, profileId);
                p.setActivation(new AlwaysOnActivation());
                project.setActiveProfiles(updatedActiveProfiles);

But the added profiles aren't executed.
I don't feel this is the way to go, but I can't think of an alternative.

Any tips please ?

Best regards,
Raymond
