[jira] Commented: (GERONIMO-5231) Override JVM libraries with newer versions

["Jarek Gawor (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GERONIMO-5231?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12854189#action_12854189 ] 

Jarek Gawor commented on GERONIMO-5231:
---------------------------------------

Committed a basic solution in revision 931319. In that solution I created a maven-property-plugin which executes in the "validate" phase and sets "bootClassPath" system property. The value of "bootClassPath" property is set to -Xbootclasspath/p:<path><pathSeparator><path>... string where each <path> is the jar file to prepend to boot classpath. The "bootClassPath" property is then used in maven-compiler-plugin and maven-surefire-plugin and passed as a java/javac argument.

> In some cases, Java EE 6 requires newer library versions then what is provided by Java SE 6. For example, EE 6 requires annotations 1.1 api but SE 6 provides annotation 1.0 api. So it is necessary that during a build we override the JVM provided libraries with newer versions.
