This is the description on the source paramenter of the compiler
plugin page (of the goal compile:compile):
source:
The -source argument for the Java compiler.
* Type: java.lang.String
* Since: 2.0
* Required: No
* Expression: ${maven.compiler.source}
* Default: 1.5
How can I get that value? If it is not evaluable as an expression, how
can I know how it will be evaluated by the plugin?
My JavaHome points to a Java 1.6 but as far as I know the 2.0.2
compiler use 1.4 compilation, isn't it?
