[sroughley]

Brief Summary

Regex-based profile activation appears not to work using regex-profile-activator with Mavn 3.9.9

Expected Outcome

A maven profile should be activated when using this plugin during compilation

Current Outcome

The profile activation appears not to be happening

Reproducer

Creating a simple empty Maven project with the following pom.xml file:

                </executions>
            </plugin>
        </plugins>
    </build>
</project>

and running the following command:

mvn clean -Dkeyword=testing

Should activate the test-keyword profile as shown by the phrase TEST Profile active appearing in the console output, however this does not happen, e.g.:

$ mvn clean -Dkeyword=testing

Hello @sroughley,

I can confirm that the plugin does not seem to function at all based on your reproducer. I tried using older versions of Mavenm an older JDK and different combinations of regular expressions, without any success. I have raised an internal issue, codename FISH-9752, and the Platform Development team will have a look into this issue.

Thank you very much for your report!

Best regards, Felix
