Hi, maybe one of the maven experts can shed some light on the following behaviour…
In my bigdataviewer-server pom.xml file (https://github.com/bigdataviewer/bigdataviewer-server/blob/84b6724ccdefbdcf787f4896a102bc39d415063a/pom.xml) I want to set source compatibility to 1.7. I tried to do this by specifying <properties> <scijava.jvm.version>1.7</scijava.jvm.version> </properties> Strangely, this alone does not solve the problem. mvn on the command line says: ... INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------- [ERROR] COMPILATION ERROR : [INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------- [ERROR] /Users/pietzsch/workspace/BigDataViewer/bigdataviewer-server/src/main/java/bdv/server/BigDataServer.java:[248,46] multi-catch statement is not supported in -source 1.5 (use -source 7 or higher to enable multi-catch statement) … I can fix it by additionally putting this snippet: <build> <plugins> <plugin> <artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId> <configuration> <source>1.7</source> <target>1.7</target> </configuration> </plugin> </plugins> </build> into the pom file. However, shouldn’t this be already automatically done by setting scijava.jvm.version=1.7??? At least Eclipse seems to think so: I fact, the above snippet to configure maven-compiler-plugin I just copied from the “Effective POM” shown in Eclipse (for the pom without explicitly having the snippet of course…) Does anyone have an explanation? Is this a maven bug? all the best, Tobias
