Description

The substitution of properties doens't seems to work inside the exists tag in the pom.xml.

 	<profiles>
		<profile>
			<activation>
				<file>
					<exists>${share}</exists>
				</file>
			</activation>
			<build>
				....
			</build>
		</profile>
	</profiles>
	<properties>
		<share>u:\SCOKART_Gilles\Public</share>
	</properties>

Doesn't seems to work (the profile is not activated),

while :

 	<profiles>
		<profile>
			<activation>
				<file>
					<exists>u:\SCOKART_Gilles\Public</exists>
				</file>
			</activation>
			<build>
				....
			</build>
		</profile>
	</profiles>
	<properties>
		<share>u:\SCOKART_Gilles\Public</share>
	</properties>

activate the profile.
