Hi, Since I got no reply on the users' list, I'm forwarding this to the dev list. I do believe there are a few issues with the Maven Release Plugin. I'd appreciate some feedback.
Thanks, Reinhard -----Original Message----- From: Reinhard Nägele [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Donnerstag, 12.

Problem 1: We use Java 5 including features such as generics etc. In our super pom, the compile plugin is configured to use 1.5 source and target. However, using the Release plugin, these setting seem to be ignored, and we get compilations errors like these: generics are not supported in -source 1.3 (try -source 1.5 to enable generics) annotations are not supported in -source 1.3 (try -source 1.5 to enable annotations) @Override Compiling only (mvn compile) works as expected. Problem 2: In another project, we use custom plugins. For some reason, these plugins cannot be resolved using the Release plugin, but work fine otherwise. Deleting the local repository did not help. The plugins are deployed to our central repository (Artifactory). [INFO] Failed to resolve artifact. GroupId: com.foo.plugins ArtifactId: maven-foo-plugin Version: RELEASE Reason: Unable to determine the release version com.foo.plugins:maven-foo-plugin:pom:RELEASE As mentioned above, the problems went away going back to version 2.0-beta-5. BTW, we create the releases using release:prepare and release:perform together in batch mode. Is anybody else experiencing such problems?
