Use-case: I have a multilevel project where the top level POM defines a number of different profiles. In some (i.e. not all) of the sublevel projetcs I need to execute a plugin only if a certain profile, say X, defined within top level POM is activated by the user.
Also the configuration of the plugin is not shared among the sublevel modules that actually requires execution of the plugin. What I need is a simple construction like this: <IfActive profile="X" > <plugin> ... </plugin> </IfActive> Considerations: I cannot just define the plugin within the profile X in the top level POM since then every subproject would then execute the plugin once the X profile was activated which is not ok since the execution of the plugin only applies to some of the subprojetcs and the configuration of the plugin is project specific. Of course I could define a new profile within the relevant submodules that takes care of the execution of the plugin however the number of profiles required this way would be unmanagble. Any suggestions on how to solve this issue ?
