Hi,

currently we have already the build requirements for Maven Core at JDK11+

So in consequence I would suggest to lift the minimum requirement for
building plugins to JDK11.

That means also we can use "--release 8" option
(<maven.compiler.release>8</maven.compiler.release>) instead of
source/target which is not correct based on the warnings we get like:
"[WARNING] bootstrap class path not set in conjunction with -source 8"
which we get in all plugins based on the configuration in maven parent
using this:

    <javaVersion>8</javaVersion>
    <maven.compiler.source>1.${javaVersion}</maven.compiler.source>
    <maven.compiler.target>1.${javaVersion}</maven.compiler.target>

which is not correct because we don't use animalsniffer anymore.

So my suggestion is to lift the JDK build requirements to JDK11...
and use the <maven.compiler.release>8</maven.compiler.release> which
will prevent the warning. Also brings us back the safety net which
animal-sniffer was before.


Later on version of maven-parent (v42?) should change the whole
configuration (there are some related parts like maven-pmd-plugin,
maven-enforcer-plugin (enforce-byte-code max)..also toolchain-plugin...

Furthermore we could get rid of the profile for JDK11+ related to
spotless-maven-plugin ...

Based on the upgrade to maven-parent v41 we could also enhance the build
pipelines to build on JDK21

WDYT?

Kind regards
Karl Heinz Marbaise
