Clear/unset a system property maven.compiler.release so that is is no longer present

Viewed 82

I have a project with complicated build setup (parent POM's with parent POM's) and so it happens that my compiler plugin executes with maven.compiler.release=8.

This prevents me from setting source/target to Java 11 and I can't set release to 11 since I need to specify some --add-exports.

Is there a way to remove a system property in a profile so that it will not appear and my source/target switches would work? The best I could think of is setting maven.compiler.release to empty value but it won't work with compiler plugin.

How do I clear the system property in a profile? Alternatively, is there a way to trace who actually set it in the first place?
