RewritePomsForReleasePhase requires JDK 5.0 -------------------------------------------
Key: MRELEASE-234 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MRELEASE-234 Project: Maven 2.x Release Plugin Issue Type: Bug Affects Versions: 2.0-beta-5 Environment: JDK1.4 Reporter: William Ferguson If JAVA_HOME is set to JDK-1.4 you cannot build the maven-release-manager as the RewritePomsForReleasePhase class uses 2 JDK-5 APIs on lines 254 urlPath.contains(CharSequence) 260 urlPath.replace(CharSequence, CharSequence) If JDK-5 is required for the build environment then the POM needs to be modified to <artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId> <configuration> <source>1.5</source> <target>1.4</target> </configuration> </plugin> Note that specifying <source>1.4</source> does not seem to ensure that only 1.4 APIs are used. Just try setting JAVA_HOME to JDK-1.4 and build Alternatively RewritePomsForReleasePhase should not used JDK-1.4 APIs. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://jira.codehaus.org/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
