title: How to get Maven 3.0.4 to use Java7?
body: <p>I've just updated maven from 3.0.3 to 3.0.4 using the compiled binaries from the official site.Now when I run mvn -version , it says that it uses the old java 6 version , instead of the java 7 version that I have installed on my machine (macbook pro).
  If I run the 3.0.3 version maven binary from inside its folder it uses the java 7 version.
  How can I configure maven 3.0.4 so that it uses the Java 7 version?
  Thank you.</p>
  
  <p>PS : Java 7 is the default java version at my system (mountain lion).</p>
