[M2] Profiles to select jar according to jdk version

[Saminda Abeyruwan]

Hi All,

I've face with the following problem. For our project we are using
bouncycastle jars. They have jdk 1.4 and 1.5  compatible versions. In our
project we have a root pom.xml as follows,

<project>
<!-- usual maven2 settings -->

<dependecyManagement>
   <!-- jars -->
</dependecyManagement>

<profiles>
       <profile>
           <id>jdk14</id>
           <activation>
               <jdk>1.4</jdk>
           </activation>
           <dependencies>
               <dependency>
                   <groupId>bouncycastle</groupId>
                   <artifactId>bcprov-jdk13</artifactId>
                   <version>${bcprov.jdk13.version}</version>
               </dependency>
           </dependencies>

       </profile>

       <profile>
           <id>jdk15</id>
           <activation>
               <jdk>1.5</jdk>
           </activation>
           <dependencies>
               <dependency>
                   <groupId>bouncycastle</groupId>
                   <artifactId>bcprov-jdk15</artifactId>
                   <version>${bcprov.jdk15.version}</version>
               </dependency>
           </dependencies>
       </profile>

   </profiles>



</project>

[This is a multimodule project ..]

According to the documentation, if I'm using jdk1.4, Maven2 build should
select  bcprov-jdk13.

But  even i  Use  mvn clean install or mvn clean install -Djdk14, the TEST
CASES would always select bcprov-jdk15 jar,due to this, when the test cases
are running we are always getting,

java.lang.UnsupportedClassVersionError:
org/bouncycastle/jce/provider/BouncyCastleProvider (Unsupported
major.minorversion
49.0)

Above is mainly due to jdk version problem.


There's no problems, If the build is running under Jdk1.5.

What should I do to rectify this for jdk 1.4

Thank you

Saminda
