Maven JavaDoc plugin uses wrong source value - maven

We setup the compiler plugin in a dedicated parent pom:
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId>
<configuration>
<source>1.8</source>
<target>1.8</target>
</configuration>
</plugin>
But the javadoc plugin (version 2.9.1) fails with error:
error: lambda expressions are not supported in -source 1.7
If i run with "-X" i only see that indeed source is set to 1.7: source = 1.7
So the question is why?
(the normal build works fine!)
I also tried to explicitly set source either by property maven.compiler.source or by plugin configuration - i put the compiler plugin configuration from above into the project.
So how to get it working?

Failed to execute goal org.sonarsource.scanner.maven:sonar-maven-plugin: 3.2:sonar

Can anyone help me in getting solution for the below error.
Below are the version of the components to configure
SonarQube 5.1.2
Soanr-Runner 2.4
Java 1.7 [ I have to use 1.7 only since my code supports only 1.7]
mavn 3.3.9
sonar-cobertura-plugin-1.6.3
sonar-findbugs-plugin-3.3
cobertura 2.6
Execution command
mvn -fn -e org.sonarsource.scanner.maven:sonar-maven-plugin:RELEASE:sonar -Dsonar.jdbc.url="jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/sonar?useUnicode=true&characterEncoding=utf8&rewriteBatchedStatements=true&useConfigs=maxPerformance" -Dsonar.host.url=http://localhost:9000 -DskipTests
In Console Window I am getting error
[ERROR] Failed to execute goal org.sonarsource.scanner.maven:sonar-maven-plugin:
3.2:sonar (default-cli) on project NWT_Core: Execution default-cli of goal org.s
onarsource.scanner.maven:sonar-maven-plugin:3.2:sonar failed: Unable to load the

tion.ComponentLookupException: org/sonarsource/scanner/maven/SonarQubeMojo : Unsupported major.minor version 52.0
Since the 3.2, the SonarQube maven plugin requires Java 8.
You have to use the 3.0.2 version for Java 7.
You have to explicitely add this statement to your pom :
<plugin>
<groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId>
<artifactId>sonar-maven-plugin</artifactId>
<version>3.0.2</version>
</plugin>
Because if you do not do so, by default this plugin uses the LATEST version of the plugin (3.2), hence your error.
See http://docs.sonarqube.org/display/HOME/Frequently+Asked+Questions#FrequentlyAskedQuestions-ShouldIlockversionofSonarQubeMavenplugininmypom.xml?
Regardless of what you compile your code with, the SonarQube analysis should be run with a specific Java version.
You simply need to use different JDK versions for the compilation and analysis.
For SonarQube 6.* compatibility], make sure the JAVA_HOME=/path/to/java8
For SonarQube 9.* compatibility], make sure the JAVA_HOME=/path/to/java11
In my case I had a parent pom with
<build>
<pluginManagement>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.codehaus.sonar</groupId>
<artifactId>sonar-maven-plugin</artifactId>
<version>2.5</version>
</plugin>
</plugins>
</pluginManagement>
</build>
I've added my own version also within pluginManagement in my child pom but this didn't work I had to add the plugin to the <build><plugins> nodes instead of <build><pluginManagement><plugins>. Only then new newer version had been used.
Maybe this helps someone.
Recently, install Sonorqube.5.12 image in docker and push the project into Sonorqube. Initially we were facing some maven console errors like major.minor version 52.0.
Later, has been fixed by below step's for me.
Add this plugs in maven.
<plugins>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId>
<artifactId>sonar-maven-plugin</artifactId>
<version>2.6</version>
</plugin>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId>
<configuration>
<source>1.7</source>
<target>1.7</target>
</configuration>
</plugin>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-surefire-plugin</artifactId>
</plugin>
</plugins>
Next, Add default DB setup in ~/.m2/settings.xml file
<profile>
<id>sonar</id>
<activation>
<activeByDefault>true</activeByDefault>
</activation>
<properties>
<sonar.jdbc.url>jdbc:h2:tcp://localhost:9092/sonar</sonar.jdbc.url>
<sonar.host.url>http://localhost:9000</sonar.host.url>
<sonar.jdbc.username>sonar</sonar.jdbc.username>
<sonar.jdbc.password>sonar</sonar.jdbc.password>
<sonar.pdf.username>admin</sonar.pdf.username>
<sonar.pdf.password>admin</sonar.pdf.password>
</properties>
</profile>
It worked for me after using Maven->update project , mvn clean install, mvn clean compile

How to suppress Maven compiler warnings in Jenkins

I use maven-compiler-plugin to compile the project. With current configuration when project is building I get the WARNING in the log. My requirement is that how can I suppress the warnings when project build. Please let me know.
POM configuration
<plugin>
<artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId>
<version>3.5.1</version>
<configuration>
<source>1.7</source>
<target>1.7</target>
<failOnError>false</failOnError>
</configuration>
</plugin>
See javac - Java programming language compiler, Options:
An additional set of non-standard options are specific to the current virtual machine and compiler implementations and are subject to change in the future. Non-standard options begin with -X.
...
-Xlint:none   Disable all warnings.
See also How to get compiler warnings when building a Jenkins plugin:
<configuration>
<compilerArgument>-Xlint:none</compilerArgument>

extended maven plugin ignores configuration

i did a maven plugin that overwrites "maven-jar-plugin" following this doc:
How do I create a new packaging type for Maven?
you can find my plugin here:
http://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.lucee/lco-plugin/1.0
the source is here:
https://github.com/lucee/lco-maven-plugin
I only change the extension, nothing else, i get the right extension as expected, problem is the configuration is ignored
<plugin>
<groupId>org.lucee</groupId>
<artifactId>lco-plugin</artifactId>
<version>1.01-SNAPSHOT</version>
<!-- when I use this the configuration works!
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-jar-plugin</artifactId>
<version>2.6</version>-->
<configuration>
<archive>
<manifestFile>${project.build.outputDirectory}/META-INF/MANIFEST.MF</manifestFile>
</archive>
</configuration>
<extensions>true</extensions>
</plugin>
any idea what i do wrong?
You can do further debugging by running your maven build with the -X -e flags activated. This way, you'll see for each running plugin which configuration is loaded.
As the configuration is not loaded, I would suggest it's typically an activation issue that the aforementionned method will allow you to solve.

Where is the JDK version to be used by Maven compiler specified?

When I do not define something as follows in my pom.xml file, where on my system is it defined for Maven which version of Java JDK to use while compiling (I have several versions installed on my system, JAVA_HOME points to one of them)?
<build>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId>
<version>2.3.2</version>
<configuration>
<source>1.5</source>
<target>1.5</target>
</configuration>
</plugin>
</plugins>
</build>
Maven doc says
The Compiler Plugin is used to compile the sources of your project. The default compiler is javac and is used to compile Java sources. 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.
ref: http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-compiler-plugin/index.html
There is this interesting thread on Maven's Jira Change default source level to 1.5
EDIT:
Update for Maven 3.0 and later:
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.
Source: http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-compiler-plugin/index.html
Thanks nachteil for pointing it out.
simply use properties
<properties>
<maven.compiler.target>1.7</maven.compiler.target>
<maven.compiler.source>1.7</maven.compiler.source>
<maven.test.skip>true</maven.test.skip>
</properties>
From maven compiler plugin doucemntation:
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.
I found this post via search engine and I think it is worth updating.
Also: the -target and -source options do not affect the compiler itself, but rather the way it handles source code and produces output byte code.
You must define a property in your maven setting.xml file. The property is your second javac path.(D:\dev\java\ibm\java1.6.0\bin\javac)After use this property for maven-compiler-plugin in your pom file.
setting.xml
<settings>
<profiles>
<profile>
<id>IBM_JAVA</id>
<properties>
<IBM_JAVA_1_6_JAVAC>D:\dev\java\ibm\java1.6.0\bin\javac</IBM_JAVA_1_6_JAVAC>
</properties>
</profile>
</profiles>
<activeProfiles>
<activeProfile>IBM_JAVA</activeProfile>
</activeProfiles>
</settings>
pom.xml
<plugin>
<artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId>
<configuration>
<fork>true</fork>
<executable>${IBM_JAVA_1_6_JAVAC}</executable>
<encoding>UTF-8</encoding>
<source>1.6</source>
<target>1.6</target>

Maven Install: "Annotations are not supported in -source 1.3"

When running mvn install on my project, i see it fail due to the following errors:
C:\Repositories\blah\src\test\java\com\xxx\qm\testrunner\test\ATest.java:[11,5] annotations are not supported in -source 1.3
(use -source 5 or higher to enable annotations)
#Test
C:\Repositories\blah\src\test\java\com\xxx\qm\common\test\BTest.java:[11,5] annotations are not supported in -source 1.3
(use -source 5 or higher to enable annotations)
#Test
My Maven dependency includes jUnit 4.8, however and has no reference to 1.3 anything.
What would cause these errors? Please advise
You need to specify the source version of your maven project through the use of the maven-compiler-plugin. Add the following to your pom build element and set the appropriate java source and target levels.
<build>
<defaultGoal>install</defaultGoal>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId>
<configuration>
<source>1.6</source>
<target>1.6</target>
</configuration>
</plugin>
</plugins>
</build>
http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-compiler-plugin/
A shorter version:
<project>
<properties>
<maven.compiler.source>1.5</maven.compiler.source>
<maven.compiler.target>1.5</maven.compiler.target>
</properties>
....
You are most likely using OpenJDK where the source level is 1.3 when not explicitly set - as opposed to Oracle JDK where the source level is 1.5.
Since most modern Java projects target newer code than Java 5 you most likely need to set this anyway.
Also note that if you need a lower target than source (e.g. for compiling with Java 6 but deploying to Java 5) you can do this by using the Eclipse compiler instead of Javac.
Bu default, the maven tries to compile using Java 1.3 version. I hope most of them hit this error because of missing to tell maven that "Hey Maven, Dont use 1.3 and use "whatever_version_I_give"
This can be mentioned in pom.xml as below :
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId>
<version>2.5.1</version>
<inherited>true</inherited>
<configuration>
<source>1.7</source>
<target>1.7</target>
</configuration>
</plugin>
In my above example, I have used 1.7. Please replace with whatever version you wish to.
Add this in your pom
<build>
<pluginManagement>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId>
<version>3.0</version>
<configuration>
<!-- put your configurations here -->
</configuration>
</plugin>
</plugins>
</pluginManagement>
</build>
