mvn help:active-profiles only list the profiles activate within the project + system settings you call it in.
It does not list the profiles that have been enabled/activated from i.e. the parent pom.
Any any way to actually see the full list of activated profiles by other means than trial-and-error to look at what properties are enabled or not ?
Another option is mvn help:all-profiles
, which also list inherited profiles.
Displays a list of available profiles under the current project. Note: it will list all profiles for a project. If a profile comes up with a status inactive then there might be a need to set profile activation switches/property.
