Hi
Yes. I've read this. But how do you point to the correct javac. It has to be
done through an environment variable like ${JDK6_HOME}.
Which you could define as a profile property in your settings.xml.
However, how to trigger the correct 'jdk' profile. Using the jdk activation
results in activating the same jdk as maven is using.
Any other ideas? Prefrebly I don't trigger the profile manually.
regards

you could think about using this
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId>
<configuration>
<verbose>true</verbose>
<fork>true</fork>
<executable><!-- path-to-javac --></executable>
<compilerVersion>1.3</compilerVersion>
</configuration>
</plugin>
Hope this helps
