Thank you, both - will try and let you know.  I was hoping there was a
way to compile the EJB in 1.5 but fork the process to compile the client
with a different JDK (1.4) within the generateClient portion of the EJB
plugin (vs. a separate custom module for the EJB client), though.

Thanks,
Daryl

I assume you've configured the compiler plugin to target 1.5 at the top
level of your project [1], so (as Tim mentioned) you can override the
configuration to target 1.4 in the sub-module.

Something that Jakarta Commons does (with Maven 1) is add
"X-Compile-Target: 1.4" to the manifest, to reassure people since it
will otherwise just say "Build-Jdk: 1.5.0_06".  I haven't figured out
how to do this with m2 yet.
