Maven: run a build for multiple profiles in Eclipse

Question

Let's suppose we have a Maven project in Eclipse. The pom.xml has two profiles.

The question is: how can I run maven in Eclipse in order to execute every goals for each profile?

I tried to:

• setting active maven profiles in Properties/Maven -> didn't work
• run maven with: clean install -Pprofile1 -Pprofile2 -> didn't work
• run maven with: clean install -P profile1,profile2 -> didn't work
• run maven setting "Profiles" under "Goals" ( profile1,profile2) -> didn't work

I want that maven will run for both profiles, executing all tasks in the pom.xml

Thanks.

What is the purpose of those profiles? What are the differences? – Stressful

The purpose is: run a build with both profiles. The build itself makes different things on each profile. I simply want to run the build one single time with both profiles and combine the result of the build of profile1 with the build of the profile2 – Lusatia

sorry but your answer you have written does not answer my question. What is being done for the different profiles? Why are those profiles needed? – Stressful

That's not relevant what the build has to do. I simply want to know how can I have in the target folder the result of the build with profile1 with the build of the profile2. Each build produces a "profile1" or "profile2" folder in target. So I want to produce both in the same time. – Lusatia

What do you exactly get, if you specify all profiles in the Maven run configuration? As a workaround, the Maven run configurations for the different profiles can be combined in a Launch Group: https://mcmap.net/q/338199/-running-multiple-launch-configurations-at-once – Misstate

If I specify all the profiles, only one is built. The Launch Group function looks interesting. – Lusatia

Here is how you do it Eclipse Config

Giving multiple profiles seperated by a space (which i think you propose) does not work for me. Only the last profile is used. – Electrical
