James Nord commented on MNG-7388: --------------------------------- dupe of https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-7566 which is now fixed for Maven4? > Support Java prerequisites for Maven plugins > -------------------------------------------- > > Key: MNG-7388 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-7388 > Project: Maven > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Konrad Windszus > Priority: Major > > Currently only the minimum Maven version can be explicitly required for a > Maven plugin via {{prerequisites->maven}}. The same should be possible for > the Java version, as Maven plugins compiled for Java 11 won't run on Java 8 > and currently only emit the nasty "UnsupportedClassVersion" errors. > The plugin reporting plugin uses some heuristics in > https://github.com/apache/maven-plugin-tools/blob/c6d0808b92423b969f8d2aac500b7263399d0373/maven-plugin-plugin/src/main/java/org/apache/maven/plugin/plugin/PluginReport.java#L739, > but this is only considered for the plugin documentation but never at run > time. This metadata should be evaluated similar to prerequisites.maven at > https://github.com/apache/maven/blob/0080e845884922814d26914d0ae9f59b084bee35/maven-core/src/main/java/org/apache/maven/lifecycle/internal/MojoExecutor.java#L173 > This requires a Maven model change though, and therefore can only end up in > Maven 5. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.20.10#820010)
