John Cheng commented on MNGSITE-102:
------------------------------------
Got it. I was not aware of this. I only started to use Maven 3 after I had
trouble with profiles.xml in Maven 2.
Having gone through this myself, my feeling is that if Maven 2 can output a
message about profiles.xml going away in 3.0, it can save users quite a bit of
headache.
As far as the documentation for Maven 2, it'd still be nice to have it updated,
again, to save users a bit of headache if they decided they need to use
profiles.xml.

> Key: MNGSITE-102
> URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNGSITE-102
> Project: Maven 2 Project Web Site
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: John Cheng
>
> The documentation at
> http://maven.apache.org/guides/introduction/introduction-to-profiles.html
> seems to indicate that the schema for profiles.xml is
> <profiles>
> <profile>...</profile>
> </profiles>
> However, it seems that now a root element of <profilesXml>...</profilesXml>
> is required. A sample working profiles.xml file looks like:
> <profilesXml
> xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/PROFILES/1.0.0";
> xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance";
> xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/PROFILES/1.0.0
> http://maven.apache.org/xsd/profiles-1.0.0.xsd";>
> <profiles>
> <profile>
> <id>dev</id>
> <activation>
> <activeByDefault>true</activeByDefault>
> </activation>
> <properties>
> </properties>
> </profile>
> </profiles>
> </profilesXml>
> Note that the schema for profilesXml is not documented along with
> settings.xml and the POM.
