generics are not supported in -source 1.3
Solution 1
Generics were added in java 1.5. Your maven is compiling for java 1.3.
This can be fixed in one of two ways.
Remove generics so that you can compile for < 1.5
Change the maven configuration to compile for a newer version of java. You should be able to edit your compiler plugin in your pom:
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId>
<version>3.0</version>
<configuration>
<source>1.5</source>
<target>1.5</target>
</configuration>
</plugin>
This tells maven to compile for 1.5
Solution 2
You need to tell the maven compiler plugin that your code is using a recent java version. For instance, if you are using java 7, to the following:
<plugins>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId>
<configuration>
<source>1.7</source>
<target>1.7</target>
</configuration>
</plugin>
</plugins>
Solution 3
Android studio: It fixes by adding these below lines in the file app build.gradle
compileOptions {
sourceCompatibility JavaVersion.VERSION_1_8
targetCompatibility JavaVersion.VERSION_1_8
}
Note: use the latest java version, here I'm using java 8
Solution 4
When you compile your code with -source 1.3
, the compiler does not support assertions, generics, or other language features introduced after JDK 1.3.

I have a problem while maven packaging. In this code:
public class LoginDialog extends Dialog { private final TextField<String> customer; ^here private final TextField<String> login1; private final TextField<String> password1; private final MainController controller= new MainController(); private String customerId; private String login; private String password;
I have an error like:
[ERROR] BUILD FAILURE [INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [INFO] Compilation failure ...src/main/java/com/messagedna/web/client/widget/LoginDialog.java:[19,27] error: generics are not supported in -source 1.3
what may be the reason of this?
