Excluding certain modules in a profile

[Balasubramanian, Ravi Shankar]

Hi,

I am using maven 2.0.4 and I want to be excluding certain modules while
building my project in a certain profile. Following is the scenarion:

 

This is how my main pom looks like:

 

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>

<project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0";
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance";

    xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0
http://maven.apache.org/maven-v4_0_0.xsd";>

    <modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion>

    <groupId>com.informatica.metadatarepository.qa</groupId>

    <artifactId>metamodels</artifactId>

    <packaging>pom</packaging>

    <name>${artifactId}</name>

    <modules>

              <module>module1</module>

              <module>module2</module>

              <module>module3</module>

              <module>module4</module>

     </modules>

 

     <profiles>

         <profile>

           <id>cpp-qa</id>

           <modules>

              <module>module3</module>

              <module>module4</module>

           </modules>

    </profile>

</profiles>

 

 

With the above pom, when I build the project activating the profile
"cpp-qa", all the four modules are being built. I want to be building
only module3 and module4 using certain configurations in this profile.
Is there a way by which I can accomplish this in maven2?

 

 

Thanks for any help,

Ravi.
