Yes, you need a pom.xml in the root of a project for maven to do its mojo.

It means the application is using two features of java (annotations and 
generics to be precise) which are only supported in Java 5+. To fix this you 
need to set the source property of the maven-compiler-plugin in the build 
section of the pom to 1.5. It might also be necessary to set the target to 1.5 
in this case. I.e like this:

                       <plugin>
                               <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
                                <artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId>
                                <version>2.1</version>
                                <configuration>
                                        <source>1.5</source>
                                        <target>1.5</target>
                                </configuration>
                        </plugin>


Or update to a more recent version of maven or the compiler plugin. They've 
updated the default for source and target to 1.5 for some time now.

Kind regards,
Thomas
