[jbosstools-issues] [JBoss JIRA] (ERT-531) Maven 3.3.1 doesn't pick up the customized Toolchain for the WTP build [EBZ#472084]

Maven 3.3.1 doesn't pick up the customized Toolchain for the WTP build [EBZ#472084] ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: ERT-531 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/ERT-531 Project: Eclipse Release Train Issue Type: Task Components: Community Reporter: Friendly Jira Robot Assignee: Nick Boldt Priority: Critical Labels: Hudson, bzira A few WTP plugins need to build with the old JDK and a WTP toolchains.xml is set up. It works fine with Maven 3.2.5 but fails with Maven 3.3.1. The current investigation showed that instead of using the WTP specific toolchains.xml which is defined in the Hudson build configuration, a common toolchains /opt/public/common/maven-toolchains.xml is linked as the user toolchains. genie.gef ~> ll ~/.m2 [....] lrwxrwxrwx 1 genie.gef tools.gef 37 23 févr. 04:05 settings.xml -> /opt/public/common/maven-settings.xml lrwxrwxrwx 1 genie.gef tools.gef 39 23 févr. 04:05 toolchains.xml -> /opt/public/common/maven-toolchains.xml I wonder how Maven 3.2.5 can pick up the customized toolchains but not 3.3.1. It would be great if Maven 3.3.1 can pick up the customized toolchains as 3.2.5. At the same time, I wonder whether the common toolchains file can be changed to support IBM JDK 1.4. Its current JDK 1.4 points to the Sun's which is broken and generates compile errors. <toolchain> <type>jdk</type> <provides> <id>J2SE-1.4</id> </provides> <configuration> <jdkHome>/shared/webtools/apps/IBMJava2-142-SR13FP10/jre</jdkHome> </configuration> </toolchain>
