Alon Bar-Lev commented on MNG-6586:
-----------------------------------

I just want to add how I manage this as of now... as I cannot include multiple 
settings, and it is difficult to merge XMLs, I use the fact that everything in 
active that is not 'true' is 'false'... so I have:

 
 <proxies>
    <proxy>
      <id>id1</id>
      <active>PROXY_ID1_ENABLE</active>
    </proxy>
  </proxies>
 

And use sed 's/PROXY_ID1_ENABLE/true/g' mysettings.xml > mysettings1.xml when I 
need to enable the proxy and use this settings.

This is far from being ideal.

 

> Allow proxy activation based on profile

>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Documentation:  General, Settings

> Hello,
> In setting reference[1] it is written:
> {quote}
> |{{proxies/[proxy|https://maven.apache.org/ref/3.6.0/maven-settings/settings.html#class_proxy]*}}|{{List<Proxy>}}|*(Many)*
>  Configuration for different proxy profiles. Multiple proxy profiles might 
> come in handy for anyone working from a notebook or other mobile platform, to 
> enable easy switching of entire proxy configurations by simply specifying the 
> profile id, again either from the command line or from the defaults section 
> below.|
> {quote}
> So it should be possible to enable/disable proxy based on a profile. However, 
> there is no instructions of how to do that.
> Adding <active>${property}</active> automatically disables the entry, even if 
> property is set to true, I verify this using help:effective-settings. I could 
> not find any property that can make any difference.
> I see many people have tried and failed, and based on the above documentation 
> it seems like either missing documentation or an actual bug.
> Please allow that, as multiple setting.xml are not supported and 
> enable/disable proxy is required for a single CI settings.xml.
> Thanks!
