[m2e-users] (n00b Alert) why does my project build and execution environment change when converting to maven project?
Hi, Sad to say that I am n00b to m2e (and to be fair, maven overall). I really like the system, but one thing I don't get is when ever I convert an existing project to a maven one or start a new maven project the execution is always J2SE-1.5. Does anyone know why this is occurring. Ps. The execution used to be JSE 6 Sent from my iPod ___ m2e-users mailing list m2e-users@eclipse.org https://dev.eclipse.org/mailman/listinfo/m2e-users

This is really a Maven question, not a Maven on Eclipse (M2E) question, and probably better asked on us...@maven.apache.org However, the reason is simply that Maven defaults to JDK 1.5. To change it, you'll want something like the following in your pom.xml ... org.apache.maven.plugins maven-compiler-plugin 3.1 1.6 1.6 which configures the compiler plugin to use JDK 1.6 Greg On 8 September 2013 10:38, Jackson Isted wrote: > Hi, > > Sad to say that I am n00b to m2e (and to be fair, maven overall).

What version of m2e are you using? Since m2e 1.1, if you start with no pom.xml and right-click on your eclipse project and Configure...>Convert to Maven..., the generated pom.xml is supposed to contain the maven-compiler-plugin configuration matching your Eclipse JDT settings. If you already have a pom.xml, then, no settings conversion is done, m2e uses the already existing pom and you must do as Greg said.

I'm using that latest version, but I will test that later when I get home. Sent from my iPod On 9 Sep 2013, at 12:33 am, Fred Bricon wrote: What version of m2e are you using?

Tried it and even added the java 1.6 library but as soon as I hit update project it fell back to 1.5 Sent from my iPod On 9 Sep 2013, at 12:33 am, Fred Bricon wrote: What version of m2e are you using?
