Using JDK 1.6 causes "ParseException: Can't use generics unless running in JDK
1.5 mode! " unless set targetJdk to 1.5, not 1.6
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: MPMD-92
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MPMD-92
Project: Maven 2.x PMD Plugin
Issue Type: Bug
Components: PMD
Affects Versions: 2.4
Reporter: Paul Sundling
Attachments: minimal.zip
Related to http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MPMD-67 , although they asked me to
open a new issue and since this affects a new version.
This error does not appear when invoking 'mvn pmd:pmd', but only when doing
'mvn site:site site:deploy'.
It generates at least two types of warnings and related stacktraces:
1. Caused by: net.sourceforge.pmd.ast.ParseException: ERROR: Can't use enum
as a keyword in pre-JDK 1.5 target
2. Caused by: net.sourceforge.pmd.ast.ParseException: Can't use generics
unless running in JDK 1.5 mode!
The following zip replicates the problem.
Use JDK 1.6 and use <targetJdk>1.6</targetJdk> and it should fail, even if you
set the compiler to be 1.5. Change to <targetJdk>1.5</targetJdk> and it should
work.
