Deactivating profiles
Twice this week for two seperate reasons, I've wanted to use profiles where it
was active by default, but it would be possible to de-activate it based on
property.
I don't see anyway to do this. Am I missing something?
Thanks
David

+1. That was what I was missing too!

Beautiful! Thanks. That should be documented on the maven site.

Hi,
There's a trick to this I discovered about six months ago. It is
possible to define a profile that is active when an env variable is
*not* defined:
<profile>
<activation>
<property>
<name>!myVar</name>
</property>
</activation>
...
</profile>
Deactivate the profile by defining the property.
For more information see < http://docs.codehaus.org/display/MAVENUSER/
Profiles>.

Thanks. Are profile exclusive then? I thought that you activate multiple
profiles (based on different conditions.

It's a little hackish, but if you have a profile that's activeByDefault, and
you want to disable it deliberately, then you can create an empty, dummy
profile, and activate that. So:
<profile>
<id>dummy</id>
</profile>
then:
mvn -P dummy <goals>
Good luck,

Re: Deactivating profiles
Posted by James Abley <ja...@gmail.com>.
I have a situation like this as well.
My use case is the maven release plugin and cargo. For day to day
builds, I want to use cargo to deploy the latest version of a war file
to my web container. During the release, the build falls over during
the cargo undeploy step due to the incremented version number of the
POM, which is part of the war file name.
So during a release, I wanted to disable cargo.
mvn release:prepare -Dcargo=false ...
This was the closest I found:
http://www.nabble.com/Skipping-cargo-tf2761726.html#a7702937
A concrete example would be be handy! I've tried the below, but it
doesn't work - the cargo plugin doesn't get called.
<profiles>
<profile>
<!--
To disable the cargo plugin to undeploy and deploy to Tomcat,
use -Dcargo=false, or not 'true' as part of the mvn
command line.
-->
<activation>
<property>
<name>cargo</name>
<value>true</value>
</property>
</activation>
<build>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.codehaus.cargo</groupId>
<artifactId>cargo-maven2-plugin</artifactId>
<configuration>
<deployer>
<deployables>
<deployable>
<artifactId>
${pom.artifactId}
</artifactId>
<groupId>
${pom.groupId}
</groupId>
</deployable>
</deployables>
</deployer>
</configuration>
</plugin>
</plugins>
</build>
</profile>
</profiles>
<properties>
<!-- enable cargo profile by default -->
<cargo>true</cargo>
</properties>
Cheers,
James
