I thought I had a solution, but it didn't work. I think it should work,
but I'm not certain. This could be a bug. This is what I had:
<properties>
<dev-active>true</dev-active>
</properties>
<profiles>
<profile>
<id>dev</id>
<activation>
<property>
<name>dev-active</name>
<value>true</value>
</property>
</activation>
</profile>
<profile>
<id>prod</id>
<activation>
<property>
<name>env</name>
<value>prod</value>
</property>
</activation>
<properties>
<dev-active>false</dev-active>
</properties>
</profile>
<profile>
<id>qa</id>
<activation>
<property>
<name>env</name>
<value>qa</value>
</property>
</activation>
<properties>
<dev-active>false</dev-active>
</properties>
</profile>
</profiles>
In short, only activate dev when the property is true. When activating
another profile, set the property to false. Unfortunately, it ain't
working. Somebody has a better idea?

Say I have a settings.xml file with three profiles, "dev" "qa" and
"production". The active profile will set variables that determine
which database to use and things like that.
I have activations so that I can use -Denv=qa or -Denv=dev to get the
right profile. But I'd like to have one of the profiles to be the
default _in case another one isn't selected_. That way I'm not always
having to type -Denv=dev when I do a dev built.
So I put an <activeByDefault>true</activeByDefault> tag in the dev
profile, and false on the others.
Now mvn help:active-profiles reports:
The following profiles are active:
- env-dev (source: settings.xml)
- env-dev (source: settings.xml)
(Twice?)
And if I do mvn -Denv=qa help:active-profiles I get:
The following profiles are active:
- env-dev (source: settings.xml)
- env-qa (source: settings.xml)
- env-dev (source: settings.xml)
And my app is built with the dev profile.
In other words, I can't override the activeByDefault setting, no
matter what I specify. I get the same thing if I say "mvn -P env-qa
help:active-profiles".
What is it I'm missing here?
