Hi,

I have a parent POM that configures the Compiler plugin for Java 1.4. It modifies the plugin's configuration and does not define any goals or executions. In such a situation, does setting the plugin's <inherited> element to true have any effect? For example:

<plugin>
        <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
        <artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId>
        <configuration>
                <source>1.4</source>
                <target>1.4</target>
        </configuration>
        <inherited>true</inherited>
</plugin>

My tests (using help:effective-pom) indicate that <inherited> has no effect on whether this configuration get passed on to children, but does anyone know for sure? Thanks,

Trevor
