mvn script cannot compile sources which use java 1.6 classes if JAVA_HOME is set
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: MNG-3707
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-3707
Project: Maven 2
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Command Line
Reporter: Brian McCallister
The section of the mvn script:
Darwin*) darwin=true
if [ -z "$JAVA_VERSION" ] ; then
JAVA_VERSION="CurrentJDK"
else
echo "Using Java version: $JAVA_VERSION"
fi
if [ -z "$JAVA_HOME" ] ; then
JAVA_HOME=/System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/${JAVA_VERSION}/Home
fi
;;
ignores JAVA_VERSION if JAVA_HOME is set. This would be fine if it would
compile against the version of java specified in JAVA_HOME, but it doesn't it
compiles against the value pointed at by the
/System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/CurrentJDK symlink, which
is always 1.5 (even if you change java version so that the
/System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/Current symlink is updated
by the OS).
I would prefer maven respect JAVA_HOME, but will take anything that allows me
to leave JAVA_HOME set and still be able to compile things :-)
