You have to explicitly specify that you want to compile with Java 1.5 -----Original Message----- From: Gwyn [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, April 18, 2006 10:06 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Checking in-use compiler? Hi, I'm running Maven2 on WinXP, with a JDK 1.5 system, but when I try & build some classes that use some 1.5 features, specifically MessageFormat.format(String, Object... ), then I get a "cannot find symbol" error on the compile. (The var-args is new in 1.5) Compiling via Ant or IntelliJ using the same (as far as I know) JDK give clean compiles. mvn -X doesn't give anything of any obvious help with regards to the internal compiler version in use, just reporting "javac", but echoing the JDK that the batch job uses confirms it's the expected one (1.5.0_06). M2 doesn't have a bundled 1.4 javac does it? Any suggestions or thoughts? The only 'odd' think about my pom.xml is that I call the xdoclet plugin to run ejbdoclet, but I don't know if that's involved... /Gwyn -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Checking-in-use-compiler--t1469398.html#a3972335 Sent from the Maven - Users forum at Nabble.com. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] This message and any attachments are confidential, proprietary, and may be privileged.
