Stian Soiland-Reyes commented on TAVERNA-867:
---------------------------------------------
Could we have a quick check for this in the README files before the next
release? Basically it was raised during the 0.15.0 release of taverna-language
that it claims it works with Java 7, but actually there's a javadoc setting for
JDK8 that means it fails in Java 7.
While we could have retrofitted Java 7 support with profiles, I think
TAVERNA-869 concluded that we should just go for Java 8 now that Java 7 is
almost a year after its End of Life.
> Javadoc plugin causes Java 8 build issues
> -----------------------------------------
>
> Key: TAVERNA-867
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TAVERNA-867
> Project: Apache Taverna
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: language 0.15.0
> Reporter: Ian Dunlop
> Assignee: Stian Soiland-Reyes
> Priority: Minor
>
> To build with Java 8 the taverna-language pom had to add the maven javadoc
> plugin with the param "-Xdoclint:none". This means that Java 7 cannot build
> unless you include -Dmaven.javadoc.skip=true. However, Java 7 is now end of
> life so we need to ensure all docs are updated to point out that Java 7 is
> not supported any more and to include the javadoc plugin in pom files if
> required.
