Oliver Lietz commented on SLING-3636:
-------------------------------------
Setting {{sling.java.version}} to the version of your JDK is not needed (and
wanted). You can build with 7 and run on 5 or 6, but there are bundles which
use newer language features and do not longer support 5. Did you encounter any
problems?

> Key: SLING-3636
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-3636
> Project: Sling
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Documentation
> Reporter: Alexander Muthmann
> Assignee: Oliver Lietz
> Priority: Minor
>
> If you follow the instructions from Getting and Building Sling
> (http://sling.apache.org/documentation/development/getting-and-building-sling.html)
> you may find the following issue:
> The requirements lists maven 3.0.2 as required but the parent mom requires
> 3.0.4.
> Furthermore it might be helpful to have a note which describes the
> possibility to use the parentpom's sling.java.version property to build Java
> 7 code.
