--------------------------------------

             Summary: Maven build does not work with Java 7
                 Key: CONNECTORS-586
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CONNECTORS-586
             Project: ManifoldCF
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Build
    Affects Versions: ManifoldCF 1.0.1
            Reporter: Karl Wright
            Assignee: Karl Wright
             Fix For: ManifoldCF 1.2


According to one user, the native2ascii version ManifoldCF is using does not work under all current versions of Java.  In particular:

{code}
[ERROR] Failed to execute goal org.codehaus.mojo:native2ascii-maven-plugin:1.0-alpha-1:native2ascii (native2ascii-utf8) on project mcf-ui-core: Execution native2ascii-utf8 of goal org.codehaus.mojo:native2ascii-maven-plugin:1.0-alpha-1:native2ascii failed: Error starting Sun's native2ascii: sun.tools.native2ascii.Main -> [Help 1]
{code}

It appears that there is a dependency on a Sun/Oracle class that does not exist in Java 7?  We should figure out how to get the same thing to work using a more modern plugin.
