Dave Sag commented on MNG-1075:
-------------------------------

in conversation with Ashley Williams on the maven users list we found the 
problem, at least from a user's perspective.

in my pom.xml i did not enclose the <plugins>...</plugins> tags within a 
<build>...</build> tag set and thus m2 was not being told to use java 1.4

the issue changes as follows:

1) why didn't m2 complain about the incorract syntax of my pom.xml
2) why is the default java for m2 1.3 and not 1.4?

cheers dave

> I can't work out how to tell maven2 that i want to enable asserts.  Whenever

> cannot resolve symbol 
> symbol  : method assert (boolean)
> I have tried forcing java1.4 in my pom.xml with the following : 
> <plugins> 
>     <plugin> 
>       <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId> 
>       <artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId> 
>         <configuration> 
>           <source>1.4</source> 
>           <target>1.4</target> 
>         </configuration> 
>     </plugin> 
> </plugins> 
> but it made no difference. 
> Thus I am reporting this as a bug.
