Could we also : - set 2.0.9+ as maven version prerequisite in a compiler 2.1 branch, so that any user running an older maven version (and may use this 2.1 plugin from LATEST rule) would be warned early during the build and not when deploying its app on a Java 1.4 runtime.
- set java 5 as plugin runtime prerequisite as user willing to compile for java 5 have many chances to run maven with this version of the JDK Nicolas. 2009/6/5 nicolas de loof <nicolas.del...@gmail.com> > Right, so do we agree to upgrade default-value to 1.5 in a new 2.1 branch > of the compiler plugin (with required warnings in release note) ? > > > 2009/6/5 Olivier Lamy <ol...@apache.org> > > 2009/6/4 Brian Fox <bri...@infinity.nu>: >> > On Thu, Jun 4, 2009 at 9:44 AM, nicolas de loof <nico...@apache.org> >> wrote: >> > >> >> Hi, >> >> just an suggestion for a potential fix to >> >> http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MCOMPILER-80 >> >> >> >> as maven 2.0.9 fixes the plugin version in super POM, we can consider >> that >> >> - if maven 2.0.9 + is detected - any version of maven compiler > 2.0.2 >> (the >> >> one set in super-pom) has been set by the user.
