I am familiar with configuring maven-compiler-plugin to use java 1.6 in pom.xml and using parent pom file.
Is there a way to configure java compiler level to java 1.6 in the settings.xml level (so that all my maven projects will use java 1.6)?
In this thread default maven compiler setting somebody told there is a way to configure it in settings.xml. Can someone please explain how to configure?
PS: Another way to specify Java compiler level:
<properties>
<maven.compiler.source>1.6</maven.compiler.source>
<maven.compiler.target>1.6</maven.compiler.target>
</properties>
