> Key: MNG-1879

> Project: Maven 2 & 3
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Dependencies, Profiles
> Reporter: Rahul Thakur

> Here's a use-case where I believe it would make sense to allow <dependencies> to be defined for profiles in profiles.xml.
> Lets says I have a web-project that sets up profiles.xml for target build environments that it can be deployed on. Target environments can each have
> different J2EE containers. Now this is what happens when I setup my project for builds/deploys.
> 1) Set up a build control project, a minimal pom.xml that has contains SCM connection to my web-project above.
> 2) checks out profiles.xml first so now the build control project has a minimal pom + profiles.xml.
> 3) checks out the web-project under ${basedir}/target
> 4) I can activate a particular profile, based on which some operations can be done by a custom Plugin before an embedded instance of maven is spawned
> and some goals (specific to that profile) are delegated down to the checked out project.
