Robert Scholte commented on MRELEASE-735: ----------------------------------------- Could you try the maven-release-plugin 2.4-SNAPSHOT? Profile resolution has changed for M3, so I can imagine that this is fixed as well. > Profile activation working unpredictably > ---------------------------------------- > > Key: MRELEASE-735 > URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MRELEASE-735 > Project: Maven 2.x Release Plugin > Issue Type: Bug > Components: perform > Affects Versions: 2.2.2 > Reporter: Thorsten Koch > Attachments: parent.zip > > > In an attempt to work around issue > http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MASSEMBLY-457 I tried to use the following > profiles to set a property depending of the existens of a certain directory > in my multimodule build: > {code:xml} > <profiles> > <profile> > <id>runAssembly</id> > <activation> > <file> > <exists>src/main/sql</exists> > </file> > </activation> > <properties> > <skipAssembly>false</skipAssembly> > </properties> > </profile> > <profile> > <id>dontRunAssembly</id> > <activation> > <file> > <missing>src/main/sql</missing> > </file> > </activation> > <properties> > <skipAssembly>true</skipAssembly> > </properties> > </profile> > </profiles> > {code} > This is working well in normal builds. I can use the ${skipAssembly} property > to switch on and of the assembly plugin depending of the directory existence > in my modules. > However, in the build run by the release:perform goal, this does not work. In > this case always the second profile from the above is activated, regardless > if the directory exists or not. > But I found out (after a lot of tries), that it DOES work if the order of the > profiles above is just changed. So when I write it like this > {code:xml} > <profiles> > <profile> > <id>dontRunAssembly</id> > <activation> > <file> > <missing>src/main/sql</missing> > </file> > </activation> > <properties> > <skipAssembly>true</skipAssembly> > </properties> > </profile> > <profile> > <id>runAssembly</id> > <activation> > <file> > <exists>src/main/sql</exists> > </file> > </activation> > <properties> > <skipAssembly>false</skipAssembly> > </properties> > </profile> > </profiles> > {code} > THEN it's working even in release:perform builds. I have no idea what the > triggering change is, but it seems worth creating an issue. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
