I added this to our corporate pom.xml as such:
<plugin>
<artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId>
<configuration>
<source>${source.version}</source>
<target>${target.version}</target>
<executable>${javac.executable}</executable>
<compilerVersion>${source.version}</compilerVersion>
<fork>true</fork>
</configuration>
</plugin>
Then have each project just override the values to suit their needs if these
do not work for them:
<properties>
<!-- source can be overridden in users pom.xml -->
<source.version>1.5</source.version>
<target.version>1.5</target.version>
<javac.executable>${JAVA_HOME}/bin/javac</javac.executable>
