settings.xml and properties
Is settings.xml read before the POMS? So if I for instance define a property in the POM and i want to trigger a profile in the settings.xml. Can I do that from the POM? Say for instance i have this: pom.snippet properties branchtrunk/branch /properties then I have the settings.xml snippet. profile idproduct-trunk/id activation activeByDefaultfalse/activeByDefault property namebranch/name valuetrunk/value /property /activation repositories repository idcentral/id urlhttp://localhost:9000/content/groups/trunk/url releases enabledtrue/enabled /releases snapshots enabledtrue/enabled /snapshots /repository /repositories /profile mvn help:active-profiles does not say the product-trunk is active, and I am assuming that this is because of the settings.xml is read before the poms. Now, before you say that I should use mirrors instead. Yes i want to do that, however, we have three different branches with the same version, and it would be nice if I could replace central like this. If this is not possible, I will go with the mirror approach. -- Erlend

Doubt about settings.xml and properties
Hi all,
I tried to follow an example found in chapter 7 of Better Builds with Maven
free book.
In particular, I have defined a settings.xml in conf folder of maven's
installation directory, the following is a piece of that file:
...
server
idprivate-internal-repository/id
username${website.username}/username
passwordpassword/password
/server
...
Then I have defined a settings.xml in my USER_HOME/.m2, the following is
that file:
settings
profiles
profile
idproperty-overrides/id
properties
website.usernameadmin/website.username
/properties
/profile
/profiles
/settings
At this point, I tried to deploy my artifact using this configuration, but I
had a 401 error during deploy.
Moreover executing the mvn help:effective-settings command the output showed
me that the property username${website.username}/username wasn't
resolved.
Obviously, substituting
username${website.username}/username with
usernameadmin/username
WORKS!!!
Why the book's example doesn't work?
Thanks in advance and best regards.
Raffaele
