Hello all,
I've a project since several years and I had not problem to build it. I recently installed JDK1.7 on my Windows 7 and now my build fail during mvn release:perform ! The build fail saying "unmappable character for encoding utf-8". That's true as my source file are encoded in ISO-8859-1. So I've added <encoding> ISO-8859-1</encoding> => no change I try to use env variable : JAVA_TOOL_OPTIONS = -Dfile.encoding=ISO-8859-1 => no change <skip>true</skip> to not generate javadoc => no change... ... and a lot of other tests I finally realized that the option file generated in the folder /target/checkout/target/apidocs contains options saying that encoding is UTF-8 ! I don't think it is a maven javadoc plugin problem as if I run mvn javadoc:javadoc, I runs successfully ! Finnaly if I use JDK 1.6 it runs perfectly... But that's not what I want to do. Does any one have any idea why options are not taking into account when maven release:perform is executed Thanks
