Guillaume Boué commented on MDEP-521:
-------------------------------------
I made a test with JDK 1.6.0_45, {{maven-dependency-plugin}} 2.10 and Maven
3.0.5. I couldn't reproduce any issue. Would it be possible to add a full
stacktrace or a sample project showing the faulty behaviour?
> Unpack goal fails in java versions earlier than 7
> -------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: MDEP-521
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MDEP-521
> Project: Maven Dependency Plugin
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: unpack
> Affects Versions: 2.10
> Reporter: Jason W. Thompson
>
> When using the unpack goal with Java 1.5 or 1.6, the following error message
> will appear:
> {{\[ERROR\] Failed to execute goal
> org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-dependency-plugin:2.10:unpack (unpack) on
> project ID-JRE_8.0: Execution unpack of goal
> org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-dependency-plugin:2.10:unpack failed: An API
> incompatibility was encountered while executing
> org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-dependency-plugin:2.10:unpack:
> java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: java.io.File.toPath()Ljava/nio/file/Path;}}
> This is obviously calling a method introduced in Java 7. This contradicts the
> about page\[1\] that indicates that JDK 1.5 is the minimum required.
> This bug does not appear until version 2.10. Version 2.9 works fine.
