Would setting a property ( <java_compliance_version>1.6 </java_compliance_version>) in your parent and using the property as the value (<source>$java_compliance_version</source> )in the source, work?

Hello,

I wish to set something like this in my parent pom :

            <plugin>
                 <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
                 <artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId>
                 <version>3.3</version>
                 <configuration>
                     <source>1.6</source>
                     <target>1.6</target>
                 </configuration>
             </plugin>
             <plugin>
                 <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
                 <artifactId>maven-toolchains-plugin</artifactId>
                 <version>1.1</version>
                 <configuration>
                     <toolchains>
                         <jdk>

<version>${project.build.pluginsAsMap(org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-compiler-plugin).configuration.children[0].value}</version>

                         </jdk>
                     </toolchains>
                 </configuration>
                 <executions>
                     <execution>
                         <goals>
                             <goal>toolchain</goal>
                         </goals>
                     </execution>
                 </executions>
             </plugin>

so that I can only set the source level in one place. The idea is that I
can set another level in one child module and toolchain will select the
correct JDK.
              <plugin>
                 <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
                 <artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId>
                 <version>3.3</version>
                 <configuration>
                     <source>1.7</source>
                     <target>1.7</target>
                 </configuration>
             </plugin>

unfortunatly this don't work has ${project.build....... } is not resolved
when set in configuration element.
Do somebody have another idea on how to set this ? (why toolchain doesn't
work hand on hand with compiler plugins ? )

Thank you
