Description

I believe that the following code is required in maven-java-pluging-1.3/plugin.jelly to get the java compiler to generate code for a prior release:

<j:if test="$

{context.getVariable('maven.compile.bootclasspath') != null}

">
<ant:bootclasspath>
<ant:pathelement path="$

{maven.compile.bootclasspath}

"/>
</ant:bootclasspath>
</j:if>

<j:if test="$

{context.getVariable('maven.compile.extdirs') != null}

">
<ant:bootclasspath>
<ant:pathelement path="$

{maven.compile.extdirs}

"/>
</ant:bootclasspath>
</j:if>

In addition, I use the following statements in my ~/build.properties:

maven.compile.source=1.3
maven.compile.target=1.3

  1. jce/jdk only required for 1.3 and less
    jce_path=c:/javasoft/jce-1_2_2
    jdk_path=c:/javasoft/j2sdk-1_3_1-09
    maven.compile.bootclasspath=$ {jdk_path}/lib/tools.jar;${jdk_path}

    /lib/dt.jar;$

    {jdk_path}/jre/lib/rt.jar;${jdk_path}

    /jre/lib/jaws.jar;$

    {jdk_path}

    /jre/lib/i18n.jar;$

    {jce_path}

    /lib/jce1_2_2.jar

Thanks,

Not sure I understand why this is needed. Can you give some reasons, and a proper cvs diff -u patch?

When using the following 1.3 compiler settings without the fix, the following code compiles successfully:

maven.compile.source=1.3
maven.compile.target=1.3

public class TestException extends Exception {

public Throwable getThrowable()

{ return getCause(); }

}

However, if you drop this code into an appserver with a 1.3 jre (e.g., WebSphere 5.0.x), the getCause() method results in a runtime exception because it requires a 1.4 jre to run. If you have the fix, the code generates a compile-time error.

Thanks,
