Aggregate profiles
Is it possible to activate multiple profiles at once, as in 'mvn
-Pprofile1 -Pprofile2', and have one profile override properties in the
other? I'm trying to make it easy to enable p6spy, something like
<profiles>
<profile>
<id>hsql</id>
<activation>
<activeByDefault>true</activeByDefault>
</activation>
<properties>
<databaseType>hsqldb</databaseType>
<databaseDriver>org.hsqldb.jdbcDriver</databaseDriver>
...
</properties>
</profile>
<profile>
<id>postgres</id>
<properties>
<databaseType>postgresql</databaseType>
<databaseDriver>org.postgresql.Driver</databaseDriver>
...
</properties>
</profile>
<profile>
<id>p6spy</id>
<properties>
<databaseDriver>...P6SpyDriver</databaseDriver>
</properties>
</profile>
</profiles>
the idea being that you can switch databases with '-Ppostgres' and
enable P6Spy for either database with, for example, '-Ppostgres -Pp6spy'.
Unfortunately, it seems that Maven only sets the properties defined in
*one* of the two profiles. Is there a way to get both?
Alternatively, is there another way to conditionally set properties in M2?

That is true, but for my project I have sort of a profile pre-requisite list...
I am looking for a way to have profile A automatically activated when I
activate B, which in turn is needed when I run C.
The thing is that I do not want to build profile A into B and C, and profile
B into C, which makes my POM very long and hard to maintain (since I
have more than the 3 profiles mentioned here as an example).
With the solution I wrote below, it is at least possible to have a sort of
profile-dependency, but it only helps with 2 profiles...
Might be that I'm lazy, but I find it somewhat like the life-cycle (run
'install' and all previous phases are run as well) and therefor would like
to see something like this implemented or at least explained as how
this might work...

I think you need to split the profiles up, and have one set that
controls which driver to use, then another set for the
database-specific configuration.
I would probably activate them with system properties (-D rather than
-P) because the configuration is more flexible.
For the driver, you need exactly one of them active (right?) so you can say
<profile>
<id>driver-p6spy</id>
<activation>
<property>
<name>driver</name>
<value>p6spy</value>
</property>
</activation>
...
and repeat for the others. Activate with -Ddriver=p6spy (or -Ddriver=hsql.)
HTH,

Hmm, using a comma-delimitted list of values with -P does get multiple
profiles activated, but the value of databaseDriver isn't reset when the
p6spy profile is included. The order the profiles are listed doesn't
seem to have any effect; databaseDriver ends up set to the same thing
with either -Phsql,p6spy or -Pp6spy,hsql.
Any other suggestions?

you can activate many profiles with -Pprofile1,profile2,profile3 etc. as
explained in "mvn -h":
-P,--activate-profiles Comma-delimited list of profiles to activate

I've been looking for something similar and found that it is possible, but atm only for
a maximum of 2 profiles.
Use the property-activation for your profiles and activate 'p6spy' when the property
is set. Then activate one of the other profiles when this property is set to a specific
value:
<profile>
<id>p6spy</id>
<activation>
<property>
<name>db</name>
</property>
</activation>
........
</profile>
<profile>
<id>hsql</id>
<activation>
<property>
<name>db</name>
<value>hsql</value>
</property>
</activation>
........
</profile>
<profile>
<id>postgres</id>
<activation>
<property>
<name>db</name>
<value>postgres</value>
</property>
</activation>
........
</profile>
Now, if you run 'mvn -Ddb=postgres' or '-Ddb=hsql' p6spy is ALWAYS activated.
Hope this helped.
