Joerg Schaible commented on MPH-79:
-----------------------------------
It is required to document the fact that the activation of the profile in the
parent is not inherited. If the parent contains a profile activation like:
{noformat}
<profile>
<id>demo</id>
<activation>
<file>
<exists>pom.xml</exists>
</file>
<!-- parent stuff -->
</activation>
</profile>
{noformat}
Then the "parent stuff" is active in the child. However, this has no influence
on a profile in the child with same id:
{noformat}
<profile>
<id>demo</id>
<activation>
<!-- child stuff -->
</activation>
</profile>
{noformat}
The "child stuff" is not activated. help:active-profiles does currently not
list the active parent profiles, only the ones for settings.xml and the current
pom. Therefore help:active-profiles should not say simply "pom" as source, but
the GAV of the pom:
{noformat}
$ mvn help:active-profiles
Active Profiles for Project 'G:A:V':
The following profiles are active:
- demo (source: pom in G:A:V)
{noformat}
Note, that if the demo had been activated in settings.xml, the "child stuff"
would have been active.
