Hi all,
I have a problem wrt profile reusability and inheritance and currently I'm not
sure if what I want to do is even possible.
- in a large projects with ~40 sub-projects, we want to add a special builder
to the Eclipse project configuration for selected projects and also write a
configuration file. So far, making that a profile and activating it via a
property is easy and the profile works as expected.
<profile>
<activation>...</activation>
<build>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-eclipse-plugin</artifactId>
<version>2.3</version>
<configuration>
<additionalBuildcommands>
...
</additionalBuildcommands>
<additionalProjectnatures>
...
</additionalProjectnatures>
</configuration>
</plugin>
</plugins>
</build>
</profile>
Since this should also contain a configuration file, I don't want to put this
into more than one place, but I failed to put the profile into the super POM
and have it activated in the child POM. I suspect that putting it into the
local settings would work, but we'd prefer to have the settings in the
repository under source control.
What we would optimally want to have:
- add the profile in the super POM in the main projects
- activate the profile in the subprojects based on the existence of a tag file
and the flag property
Is that possible?
Thanks in advance & best regards,
Torsten
