Kristian Rosenvold commented on SUREFIRE-623: --------------------------------------------- It seems like plexus-utils 1.5.6 is the last version to retain 1.3 compatibility. Rebuilding surefire with this version gives me a different type of problem, which may be related to my local environment not satisfying some other criteria for building the commons-proper project. > Docs say that Java 1.3 is supported, but minimum version is 1.4 > --------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: SUREFIRE-623 > URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/SUREFIRE-623 > Project: Maven Surefire > Issue Type: Bug > Components: documentation > Affects Versions: 2.5 > Environment: > http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-surefire-plugin/plugin-info.html > Reporter: SebbASF > > http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-surefire-plugin/plugin-info.html > says: > The following specifies the minimum requirements to run this Maven plugin: > Maven 2.0.9 > JDK 1.3 > However I get the following error when using <jvm> 1.3: > java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: > org/apache/maven/surefire/booter/SurefireBooter > Exception in thread "main" > Works OK with Java 1.4 -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://jira.codehaus.org/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
