Something like that, yes. But if we would use this approach, we would get 'conditional tags' scattered all over the pom in a while, and coherence is lost. After all, you would specify -Denv=foodev solely for the resources plugin. Other plugins could ofcourse use this property, but then you'd specify it multiple times in the pom, losing coherence. It's better to use a profile, so more plugins could benefit from this 'environment setting'. And the best thing is, it's already functional ;) -- Kenney > > On 8/25/05, Brett Porter <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > > > > >Yes, I know - but I'm not sure how to add a nested structure to it, but > > >perhaps I can figure it out somehow... > > > > > >But before I start working on a patch, I would like to know if there is > > >general interest in it.
