I didn't look at the Maven source code, but I am guessing all profile
activations are evaluated before any activations actually take place? That
would an intuitive way to code it, anyway.
As a workaround, you could do:
<profile>
<id>recreateTestDbON</id>
<activation>
<property>
<name>recreateTestDb</name>
</property>
</activation>
...
</profile>
<profile>
<id>recreateTestDbOFF</id>
<activation>
<property>
<name>!recreateTestDb</name>
</property>
</activation>
...
</profile>
And have your users enable the feature using:
mvn -DrecreateTestDb
Regards,
Curtis
