--------------------------------------

             Summary: MavenJavaCompilerFacet should use user properties instead of declaring the compiler plugin
                 Key: FORGE-1698
                 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/FORGE-1698
             Project: Forge
          Issue Type: Enhancement
          Components: Build Tools - Maven
    Affects Versions: 2.3.0.Final
            Reporter: George Gastaldi
            Priority: Minor
             Fix For: 2.x Future


The current {{org.jboss.forge.addon.maven.projects.facets.MavenJavaCompilerFacet}} declares a compiler plugin with the parameters: 
{code}
      <plugin>
        <artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId>
        <version>3.1</version>
        <configuration>
          <source>1.7</source>
          <target>1.7</target>
          <encoding>UTF-8</encoding>
        </configuration>
      </plugin>
{code}

As per http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-compiler-plugin/compile-mojo.html, this could be changed to: 
{code}
<properties>
    <project.build.sourceEncoding>UTF-8</project.build.sourceEncoding>
    <maven.compiler.source>1.7</maven.compiler.source>
    <maven.compiler.target>1.7</maven.compiler.target>
</properties>
{code}
