SebbASF commented on SUREFIRE-623: ---------------------------------- Just create a trivial Maven project and add a single test case. Edit the surefire config <jvm> to use a 1.3 JVM instead of whatever you are using to run Maven itself. BTW, Surefire 2.2 seems to be the last one that works with Java 1.3. Note that you must also use JUnit 3.8.1 as 3.8.2 has an assertion that requires 1.4 > Docs say that Java 1.3 is supported, but minimum version is 1.4 > --------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: SUREFIRE-623 > URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/SUREFIRE-623 > Project: Maven Surefire > Issue Type: Bug > Components: documentation > Affects Versions: 2.5 > Environment: > http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-surefire-plugin/plugin-info.html > Reporter: SebbASF > > http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-surefire-plugin/plugin-info.html > says: > The following specifies the minimum requirements to run this Maven plugin: > Maven 2.0.9 > JDK 1.3 > However I get the following error when using <jvm> 1.3: > java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: > org/apache/maven/surefire/booter/SurefireBooter > Exception in thread "main" > Works OK with Java 1.4 -- 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
