Hi !
With <name>!key</name> I don't reproduce the problem with maven 3, but I
reproduce it with mvnsh 0.10 (based on maven 3.0-alpha6) context history.
<profile>
<id>myprofile</id>
<activation>
<property>
<name>!blah</name>
</property>
</activation>
</profile>
[mvn 2.2.1]
- mvn help:active-profiles
>> shows myprofile is activated
- mvn help:active-profiles -Dblah
>> shows myprofile is deactivated
- mvn help:active-profiles -Dblah=blah
>> shows myprofile is deactivated
[mvnsh (based on mvn 3.0-alpha6]
- mvn help:active-profiles
>> shows myprofile is activated
- mvn help:active-profiles -Dblah
>> shows myprofile is deactivated
- mvn help:active-profiles -Dblah=blah
>> shows myprofile is deactivated
... re-running mvn help:active-profiles shows myprofile is de-activated !
[mvn 3.0]
- mvn help:active-profiles
>> shows myprofile is activated
- mvn help:active-profiles -Dblah
>> shows myprofile is deactivated
- mvn help:active-profiles -Dblah=blah
>> shows myprofile is deactivated
