AW: from workaround to workaround 3

[Wo...@AtosOrigin.com]

I tried everything now: set activeByDefault to true, delete
activeByDefault entirely, delete the activeProfiles section, refreshed
the settings in Eclipse (what gives the error: 
Error on adding indexing context local; Cannot find file
D:\projekte\.metadata\.plugins\org.maven.ide.eclipse\nexus\local\_y.fnm
)

always same result: when I execute help:active-profiles on the top-pom
'There are no active profiles'.
I am absolutely frustrated with Maven.

 

I'm pretty sure activeByDefault is not used in settings, this is for the
pom only. That's what the activeProfiles section is for.

Actually no, when you specify <activeByDefault/> (that is equivalent to
<activeByDefault>false</activeByDefault>) which AFAIK is overriding the
<activeProfiles> section.

If you had removed the <activeByDefault/> entirely it would be active
