Jenkins now requires Java 7 for running Maven builds However it is possible to use the -Pjava-1.6 (etc) profiles to continue to build with the target JVM
1) Update the main JVM to at least 1.7 so Jenkins-Maven works 2) add -Pjava-1.n to the Maven command line 3) Add the definition of JAVA_1_N_HOME to the job: Build Environment Inject environment variables to the build process Properties Content: JAVA_1_N_HOME=/home/jenkins/tools/java/latest1.N/ The path in the above line is taken from: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/INFRA/JDK+Installation+Matrix This is the approach used in Commons Validator, Net, Pool (and now CLI) As an alternative, the JAVA_1_N_HOME variable can be defined in terms of one of the 'Tool Environment' variables. e.g. JAVA_1_5_HOME=${JDK_1_5_LATEST__HOME} This avoids having to use the actual path name. Unfortunately there don't seem to be any Java settings that apply to all nodes; the Windows paths and names are different from the Ubuntu ones. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@commons.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@commons.apache.org
