Thanks to the new JDK 1.5 installer, the default location to install both the runtime and the developer kit is within the %PROGRAM_FILES% directory. That means a space is in the path to the "java" command no matter how you slice it.
The current "maven" script for Cygwin compatibility does not properly handle this arrangement--because it never had to until now. The proper way to solve the issue is to add surrounding quotes to the $JAVACMD that starts up maven. Enclosed is a script that works.
Also a problem is that the defaults on the "javac" compiler are different, and the fact that we set the "-target" option without specifying the "-source" option means that all compilation will fail with the following message:
javac: source release 1.4 requires target release 1.4
The default "-source" option is "1.4" for JDK 1.5, which means you need a "-target" of "1.4". Actually, unless you intend to have Java 1.1 compatible binaries, the "-target" option should never be set.
As a temperary workaround, how do we override the "-source" property in Maven?
