I'm having no luck, hence this post. I'm new to maven (thanks to this forum for telling me maven defaults to jdk 1.3) so super POMs are a little unfamiliar to me, from searching this forum I'm told that creating a pom.xml in the parent directory of my project "somehow" does the trick. I created one, added the plugin for maven-compiler-plugin, ran mvn install, but I still get jdk compiling errors. Does anyone have any suggestions in setting a jdk level globally for my environment? Are super POMs even the way to go? I tend to create a lot of little projects for prototyping and having to tell Maven I want jdk 1.5 for each of them is annoying.
