> I have a profile specified in the pom.xml of a project. It is inteded to be activated based on the presence or absence of a file, using the <file> profile activator.
> The profiles are simple:
> <profile>
> <id>metis</id>
> <activation>
> <file><missing>${basedir}/../build.properties</missing></file>
> </activation>
> <build>
> <filters><filter>${basedir}/../build.properties.metis</filter></filters>
> </build>
> </profile>
> <profile>
> <id>dev</id>
> <activation>
> <file><exists>${basedir}/../build.properties</exists></file>
> </activation>
> <build>
> <filters><filter>${basedir}/../build.properties</filter></filters>
> </build>
> </profile>
> The problem comes in with ${basedir} -- it isn't being expanded for purposes of evaluating the file. It's trying to look for a file named "${basedir}/../build.properties", rather than "/home/joe/projectX/projY/../build.properties"; as a result, the "missing" directive is always true, and the dev profile is never activated. When the filter path is evaluated, the ${basedir} property *is* evaluated, however.
