Description
The goal is to activate a maven profile based on OS user name.
When I create a standalone project with a profile activation, it works,
however, when I define the profile in a "parent" pom, it is never activated.
this works:
... <profile> <id>TONY</id> <activation> <property> <name>user.name</name> <value>WINTONY</value> </property> </activation> <properties> </properties>
So in this case, my profile is activated based on my OS user name

------------------
However, if I now have the profiles definition in the "parent" pom, it doesn't work when I build a child project
So the child project references the parent pom containing the profiles and the activation, but when it is built,
the profile is not activated
PARENT POM
... <profiles> <profile> <id>TONY</id> <activation> <property> <name>user.name</name> <value>WINTONY</value> </property> </activation> <properties> ...
CHILD POM (the one being built)
<project> <parent> <groupId>com.capgemini.be.proj1</groupId> <artifactId>parent</artifactId> <version>4.0.2</version> </parent>
