Yes indeed, you have the right way.
From [maven profiles user guide](http://maven.apache.org/guides/introduction/introduction-to-profiles.html#Deactivating_a_profile)

&gt; **Deactivating a profile**
&gt;
&gt; Starting with Maven 2.0.10, one or more profiles can be deactivated using the command line by prefixing their identifier with either the character &#39;!&#39; or &#39;-&#39; as shown below:
&gt;
&gt;`mvn groupId:artifactId:goal -P !profile-1,!profile-2`
&gt;
&gt; This can be used to deactivate profiles marked as activeByDefault or profiles that would otherwise be activated through their activation config.

As noted by @Calfater in the comments, the exclamation mark needs to be escaped in most shells (bash, zsh, and others on Linux and MacOS), though not on the windows command line.

The escape mechanisms are shell-dependant, but usually you can do :

    mvn groupId:artifactId:goal -P \!profile-1

Or

    mvn groupId:artifactId:goal -P &#39;!profile-1&#39;


Or, as [Shaun Morris suggested below](https://stackoverflow.com/a/30129339/537554), use `-` instead of `!`, but **without whitespace** between `-P` and the profiles:

    mvn groupId:artifactId:goal -P-profile-1,-profile2



On a Mac, I got the following error attempting to use &#39;!&#39;

    mvn groupId:artifactId:goal -P!profile-1
    -bash: !profile: event not found

Doing the following works with the &#39;-&#39;:
    
    mvn groupId:artifactId:goal -P-profile1

Alternatively you can do:

    mvn groupId:artifactId:goal -P\!profile1


Starting with Maven 2.0.10, one or more profiles can be deactivated using the command line by prefixing their identifier with either the character &#39;!&#39; or &#39;-&#39; as shown below:

This can be used to deactivate profiles marked as activeByDefault or profiles that would otherwise be activated through their activation config.
[Refer Maven Doc][2]

*Because `!` Exclamation mark is a special character for most of the command line tools, you might need to escape it [refer here][1]*.

I am trying to send data to graphite carbon-cache process on port 2003 using 

Ubuntu terminal:

    echo &quot;test.average 4 `date +%s`&quot; | nc -q0 127.0.0.1 2003

Node.js:

    var socket = net.createConnection(2003, &quot;127.0.0.1&quot;, function() {
        socket.write(&quot;test.average &quot;+assigned_tot+&quot;\n&quot;);
        socket.end();
    });


It works fine when i send data using the terminal window command on my ubuntu. However, i am not sure how to send timestamp unix epoch format from nodejs ? 

Grpahite understands metric in this format metric_path value timestamp\n

I need create an array to add objects with this format like a dictionary in Swift : [&quot;key1&quot;: &quot;value1&quot;, &quot;key2&quot;: &quot;value2&quot;]
        
When I try to save it with `NSUserDefaults` all is correct, but when read `NSUserDefaults` with the key this crashes. What type of data does my var obj need?

    let def = NSUserDefaults.standardUserDefaults()
    var key = &quot;keySave&quot;
    var element: AnyObject!

    var array1: [AnyObject!] = []
    array1.append([&quot;key1&quot;: &quot;val1&quot;, &quot;key2&quot;: &quot;val2&quot;])
    array1.append([&quot;key1&quot;: &quot;val1&quot;, &quot;key2&quot;: &quot;val2&quot;])

    //save
    var savestring : [AnyObject!]
    savestring = array1
    var defaults = NSUserDefaults.standardUserDefaults()
    defaults.setObject(savestring, forKey: key)
    defaults.synchronize()

    //read
    var obj: [AnyObject!] = []
    if(obj != nil){
        print(&quot;size: &quot;)
        print(obj.count) //vary long value confused..
        element = obj[0]  //crash
        print(element.objectForKey(&quot;key1&quot;))

I want to create a class with utility methods, for example

       public static int g (int i, int j) {...}

Should I make the utility class for abstract class?

Should I do nothing?

I have an application with maven as a build tool.

I am using maven profiles to set up different properties from different profiles.

What i would like to do is that all active profiles in maven will be ported to spring active profiles as well so i can reference them in bean signature (`@profile`). but i am not sure how to do it.

for example: consider the following maven setup

&lt;!-- language: lang-xml --&gt;

 	&lt;profiles&gt;
		&lt;profile&gt;
			&lt;id&gt;profile1&lt;/id&gt;
			&lt;activation&gt;
				&lt;activeByDefault&gt;true&lt;/activeByDefault&gt;
			&lt;/activation&gt;
			&lt;properties&gt;
			&lt;/properties&gt;
		&lt;/profile&gt;
		&lt;profile&gt;
			&lt;id&gt;profile2&lt;/id&gt;
			&lt;properties&gt;
			&lt;/properties&gt;
		&lt;/profile&gt;
		&lt;profile&gt;
			&lt;id&gt;development&lt;/id&gt;
			&lt;activation&gt;
				&lt;activeByDefault&gt;true&lt;/activeByDefault&gt;
			&lt;/activation&gt;
     		&lt;properties&gt;
			&lt;/properties&gt;
		&lt;/profile&gt;
		&lt;profile&gt;
			&lt;id&gt;production&lt;/id&gt;
			&lt;properties&gt;	
			&lt;/properties&gt;
		&lt;/profile&gt;
	&lt;/profiles&gt;

assuming i run maven with out specifying any other profiles i would like for spring to have `profile1` and  `development` as active profiles.

I am currently setting the port via a `jetty.xml` file and I&#39;ve been trying to figure out from the new documentation how to actually define an `httpConnector` through the Maven plugin&#39;s configuration. The docs on Eclipse&#39;s site seem a bit vague on it and I&#39;ve been trying to figure this out for a while, thus ending up using a `jetty.xml`. I&#39;d like to find out the proper way to do this now.

I have tried both `s3cmd`:

    $ s3cmd -r -f -v del s3://my-versioned-bucket/

And the AWS CLI:

    $ aws s3 rm s3://my-versioned-bucket/ --recursive

But both of these commands simply add `DELETE` markers to S3. The command for removing a bucket also doesn&#39;t work (from the AWS CLI):

    $ aws s3 rb s3://my-versioned-bucket/ --force
    Cleaning up. Please wait...
    Completed 1 part(s) with ... file(s) remaining
    remove_bucket failed: s3://my-versioned-bucket/ A client error (BucketNotEmpty) occurred when calling the DeleteBucket operation: The bucket you tried to delete is not empty. You must delete all versions in the bucket.

Ok... how? There&#39;s no information in [their documentation][1] for this. S3Cmd says it&#39;s a &#39;fully-featured&#39; S3 command-line tool, but it makes [no reference to versions][2] other than its own. Is there any way to do this without using the web interface, which will take forever and requires me to keep my laptop on?
