mvn clean install fails for fresh plugin using java 7

[dodtsair]

This is the failure during a java 7 run. Looks like it is using sun
specific classes?
Is this a known problem? I suppose the fix is to fall back to java
1.6 until java 7 is supported.
mvn -cpu hpi:create -DgroupId=org.sample -DartifactId=sample
cd sample/
mvn clean install

If it were actually Sun-specific classes, then why would OpenJDK work?

I don't think many people are developing with Java 7 yet. Only
recently, Java 6 was made a requirement and that is evidenced with
m-hpi-p changes to rely on Java 6's APT instead of pre-Java 6 com.sun
compiler tricks.

So, check which version of m-hpi-p is being created with the
archetype, and ensure it is something like 1.22 or better.
