What Maven XMLBeans configuration must be set to use generics?

2.1k views Asked by At

There are a few XMLBeans sites that make reference to generated code taking advantage of generics (and enums) however, I can't seem to find the configuration option to set.

Sites mentioning generics in XML Beans:
http://xmlbeans.apache.org/news.html
http://wiki.apache.org/xmlbeans/V2Features

I have set the javaSource configuration to 1.5 but that still isn't causing the generated source to use generics.
(see http://mojo.codehaus.org/xmlbeans-maven-plugin/xmlbeans-mojo.html#javaSource)

@artbristol was correct, simply use the 'javaSource' tag.

Looks like we were using 'javasource' (notice case) and that was the problem. When the case issue was resolved, the target directory wasn't being cleaned properly, leaving some legacy Java 1.4 files which was the cause of the compiler warnings.

Thanks!
