Apache Maven Compiler Plugin
The Compiler Plugin is used to compile the sources of your project. Since 3.0, the default compiler is javax.tools.JavaCompiler (if you are using java 1.6) and is used to compile Java sources. If you want to force the plugin using javac, you must configure the plugin option forceJavacCompilerUse.
Also note that at present the default source setting is 1.5 and the default target setting is 1.5, independently of the JDK you run Maven with. If you want to change these defaults, you should set source and target as described in Setting the -source and -target of the Java Compiler.
该插件从3.0版本开始,默认编译器是javax.tools.JavaCompiler (前提是JDK 1.6以后);如果想使用javac,需要手动设置。
当前的maven版本(Version: 3.5.1),默认使用JDK 1.5解析和编译源码,与运行Maven的JDK版本无关!!!如果想修改,见链接(setting the -source and -target of the Java Compiler。
