[jbosstools-dev] Should the parent pom enforce JRE 1.6 source & target level compliance when building?

[Nick Boldt]

Our parent pom currently does not set a default source and target level 
when compiling, so using 1.7 as your JDK may result in different results 
than what is used in the CI builds w/ Jenkins.

Mickael proposes we set a default source/target level of 1.6:

<plugin>
<groupId>org.eclipse.tycho</groupId>
<artifactId>tycho-compiler-plugin</artifactId>
<version>${tychoVersion}</version>
<configuration>
<encoding>UTF-8</encoding>
<!-- JBIDE-14013 -->
+ <source>1.6</source>
+ <target>1.6</target>
</configuration>
</plugin>

What do you think?
