I had a difficult time working out from the Apache Maven 2 site documentation how to build my JDK 5 projects with m2. I found the spot in the documentation for configuring plugins and reasoned that the Java compilation goal must be connected to a plugin, but did not see exactly how to tie it all together.
After several futile Google attempts, I finally hit upon trying pom.xml source target 1.5 and found this JIRA issue covering an example and including an attached pom.xml
. Using the example, a basic POM (what was previously project.xml
with Maven 1) is:
<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.mycompany.app</groupId> <artifactId>my-app</artifactId> <packaging>jar</packaging> <version>1.0-SNAPSHOT</version> <name>Maven Quick Start Archetype</name> <url>http://maven.apache.org</url> <dependencies> <dependency> <groupId>junit</groupId> <artifactId>junit</artifactId> <version>3.8.1</version> <scope>test</scope> </dependency> </dependencies> <build> <plugins> <plugin> <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId> <artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId> <configuration> <source>1.5</source> <target>1.5</target> </configuration> </plugin> </plugins> </build> </project>
I got this by running the suggested new project generator:
m2 archetype:create -DgroupId=com.mycompany.app -DartifactId=my-app
And adding the needed <build/> section.
