[jira] Created: (MNG-2848) Environment variables in profile activation not working

Environment variables in profile activation not working
-------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: MNG-2848
                 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-2848
             Project: Maven 2
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Profiles
    Affects Versions: 2.0.5, 2.0.4
         Environment: Windows XP Professional, JDK 1.5 
            Reporter: Muhammad Alsebaey


When using an environment variable as a profile activation variable, it doesnt work, using either env.X or ${env.X} doesnt work.
I found the same issue on the forums unresolved.

http://www.nabble.com/profile-activation-based-on-environment-variables-tf2585492s177.html#a7208580

Basically, the following doesnt work, where FOO is a windows environment variable (like PATH for example) :
{code:xml} 
 <profile>
  <id>haroon-workstation</id>
  <activation>
    <property>
      <name>env.FOO</name>
      <value>foo</value>
    </property>
   </activation>
    .......

 </profile> 
{code}

[jira] Commented: (MNG-2848) Environment variables in profile activation not working

k commented on MNG-2848:
------------------------

Has there been any resolution to this issue?  I am currently also trying to access environment variables from within <profile> (be it within profiles.xml and pom.xml) with no success.  Outside of <profile>, I can access environment variables just fine, but within <profile>, using the environment variable as an activation property, does not seem to work.

I've been unsuccessful trying to access the variable using the following methods within <profile>:
env.FOO
FOO
${env.FOO}
${FOO}

Any information reguarding this issue would be greatly appreciated... especially since this has been an issue for well over a year now (referring to http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-2276 ).  

Defining the variable via the commandline interface does work however, as stated in the link above.

[jira] Closed: (MNG-2848) Environment variables in profile activation not working

Posted by "John Casey (JIRA)" <ji...@codehaus.org>.
     [ http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-2848?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

John Casey closed MNG-2848.
---------------------------

      Assignee: John Casey  (was: Vincent Siveton)
    Resolution: Fixed

Looks like the system-property-setting has been reinstated, and the execution properties are still setup and used internally as specified in the patch. This is probably the best we can expect for now, unless/until we find a way to control the way plugins use (and more importantly, pass on to their delegates) the system properties.

I'm closing this issue. We can open a new one later if we need to fine-tune this behavior further.

Has there been any resolution to this issue?  I am currently also trying to access environment variables from within <profile> (be it within profiles.xml and pom.xml) with no success.  Outside of <profile>, I can access environment variables just fine, but within <profile>, using the environment variable as an activation property, does not seem to work.

I've been unsuccessful trying to access the variable using the following methods within <profile>:

Any information reguarding this issue would be greatly appreciated... especially since this has been an issue for well over a year now (referring to http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-2276 ).  

Defining the variable via the commandline interface does work however, as stated in the link above.

Btw, my version of maven is 2.0.7

> When using an environment variable as a profile activation variable, it doesnt work, using either env.X or ${env.X} doesnt work.
> I found the same issue on the forums unresolved.

> Basically, the following doesnt work, where FOO is a windows environment variable (like PATH for example) :
> {code:xml} 
>  <profile>
>   <id>haroon-workstation</id>
>   <activation>
>     <property>
>       <name>env.FOO</name>
>       <value>foo</value>
>     </property>
>    </activation>
>     .......
>  </profile> 
> {code}
