John Casey commented on MNG-835:
--------------------------------
Replying to Mark above:
Not sure I understand...you're talking about a development property set, versus
a profile-driven one for the 'live' scenario, correct? Then what would happen
if you specified the development information within the properties section just
under the project root element, then used a profile in-line to activate the
'live' overrides, as such:
<project>
...
<properties>
<db.url>jdbc:hsqldb://path/to/some/file</db.url>
</properties>
<profiles>
<profile>
<id>live</id>
<activation>
<property><name>live</name></property>
</activation>
<properties>
<db.url>jdbc:oracle:...</db.url>
</properties>
</profile>
</profiles>
</project>
Does this solve your issue? I'll await your answer before re-closing this issue.

> Hi,
> I want to allow cargo build users to override a plugin property. I have seen
> that using a <build> element is not allowed in a settings.xml file and Brett
> has suggested I use a <properties> element instead. However I also need to
> define a default value for the property that can be overridden.
> Thus I have defined the following in my project's pom.xml:
> [...]
> <build>
> <plugins>
> <plugin>
> <artifactId>maven-surefire-plugin</artifactId>
> <configuration>
> <systemProperties combine.children="append">
> <property>
> <name>cargo.containers</name>
> <value>${cargo.containers}</value>
> </property>
> [...]
> </systemProperties>
> </configuration>
> </plugin>
> </plugins>
> </build>
> <profiles>
> <profile>
> <id>default</id>
> <properties>
> <cargo.containers>jetty4xEmbedded</cargo.containers>
> </properties>
> </profile>
> </profiles>
> </project>
> I want cargo build users to be able to create a settings.xml file with the
> following for example:
> <settings>
> <profiles>
> <profile>
> <id>user-vmassol</id>
> <properties>
> <cargo.containers>resin3x</cargo.containers>
> </properties>
> </profile>
> </profiles>
> <activeProfiles>
> <activeProfile>user-vmassol</activeProfile>
> </activeProfiles>
> </settings>
> Is that the correct way to implement my use case?
> So far, the issue I've had is that the default profile created in pom.xml is
> not used when I issue a "m2 install" command. I've read on
> http://docs.codehaus.org/display/MAVEN/Build+Profiles that naming a profile
> "default" will automatically activate it. Isn't that so?
> If not how can I activate a profile defined in pom.xml by default?
> Thanks a lot
