∟Develop and Run Java Applications

∟Use "profile" in Maven Project File

This section provides a tutorial on how to use 'profile' in Maven project file to provide options to control the build process.

If you want to have optional Maven build processes, you can add multiple "profile" entries in the project file. This allows you to select a specific "profile" when running the build process.

For example, if you want to build targets with different Java versions, you can add the following "profile" entries 

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<project>
  <modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion>
  <groupId>herong</groupId>
  <artifactId>hello</artifactId>
  <version>1.0.0</version>
  <name>Hello</name>
  <description>Hello project</description>
  <profiles>
    <profile>
      <id>java-8</id>
      <properties>
        <maven.compiler.source>1.8</maven.compiler.source>
        <maven.compiler.target>1.8</maven.compiler.target>
      </properties>
    </profile>
    <profile>
      <id>java-13</id>
      <properties>
        <maven.compiler.source>1.13</maven.compiler.source>
        <maven.compiler.target>1.13</maven.compiler.target>
      </properties>
    </profile>
  </profiles>
  <properties>
  </properties>
</project>

If you want to build the target with Java 13, you can select "java-13" when running the "mvn" command: 

herong$ mvn -f pom-profile.xml -P java-13 package
