This is a good alternative. I think it should be added to the
documentation (both approaches should be documented).
Can you provide a patch?
Thanks,

I've read on

the "official" way to compile a Java1.3 application.
I think this solution isn't the best/easier as this requires the target
environment to have the expected JDK installed and the correct
properties set, with no standard naming for it.
I myself get troubles with it as I can run JDK1.3 on my nightly build
server (Linux Ubuntu : requires some "stdlibc++libc6....")
I'm using an alternative solution that has less expectation on the
compilation environment :
- Add a dependency to target runtime in the compiler plugin configuration
- Set the compiler bootclasspaht to use it
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId>
<configuration>
<source>1.3</source>
<target>1.3</target>
<compilerArguments>
<bootclasspath>
${settings.localRepository}/com/sun/rt/1.3.1_08/rt-1.3.1_08.jar
</bootclasspath>
</compilerArguments>
</configuration>
<dependencies>
<dependency>
<groupId>com.sun</groupId>
<artifactId>rt</artifactId>
<version>1.3.1_08</version>
</dependency>
</dependencies>
</plugin>
This solution only requires the to install first the expected rt.jar in
repo, as any others java API jars (com.sun:rt POM is in maven2 repo).
Don't you think this solution may be promoted on compiler plugin
documentation ?
Niso.
