------------------------------------------

             Summary: Support maven.compiler.release in pom.xml
                 Key: NETBEANS-353
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NETBEANS-353
             Project: NetBeans
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: projects - Maven
    Affects Versions: 9.0
            Reporter: Thomas Zimmermann
         Attachments: maven-compiler-release-flag.zip

I am using incubator-netbeans-release-205-on-20180202.

Java 9 added the _[--release|[http://openjdk.java.net/jeps/247]]_ flag to 
javac, the maven-compiler-plugin already supports this: 
[https://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-compiler-plugin/compile-mojo.html#release]

Right now, NetBeans uses _maven.compiler.source_ (and possibly 
_maven.compiler.target_ ?_)_ to determine the source level in the Editor. It 
would be nice to have support for _maven.compiler.release_ as well, since that 
now seems to be the preferred way to specify the source level going forward.

I tried this new flag because I saw Robert Scholte recommending it:

Attached is a trivial maven project that shows errors in NetBeans but compiles 
fine when invoking maven directly.

 

P.S.: I also want to thank you all for your work on NetBeans, it's very stable 
and intuitive to get started with. I'm not a power user, but I haven't 
encountered any issues with the snapshot version so far.
