Answer 1

I had this issue with GWTP Source Generate APT Processing annotations

It was because I didn't set a version for the compiler plugin, my final setup:

<plugin>
    <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
    <artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId>
    <version>3.0</version>
    <configuration>
        <source>1.6</source>
        <target>1.6</target>
        <!-- <compilerArgument>-proc:none</compilerArgument> -->
        <generatedSourcesDirectory>${generated.sources}</generatedSourcesDirectory>
        <annotationProcessors>
            <annotationProcessor>com.gwtplatform.dispatch.annotation.processor.GenEventProcessor</annotationProcessor>
            <annotationProcessor>com.gwtplatform.dispatch.annotation.processor.GenDtoProcessor</annotationProcessor>
            <annotationProcessor>com.gwtplatform.dispatch.annotation.processor.GenDispatchProcessor</annotationProcessor>
        </annotationProcessors>
    </configuration>
</plugin>
