Successful build in Maven still showing errors in Eclipse

Question

I\'m having something quite peculiar here, my build is successful in maven when I type \"mvn clean install\" however once imported into Eclipse it\'s showing errors.

Answer 1

I found that my project was using a project specific Java Compiler setting set to Java 1.5. Furthermore, the project facets were still referencing Java 1.5 when Maven, m2e, Eclipse general Java Compiler settings were all set to Java 1.8.
