--- Comment #1 from Mark Thomas <ma...@apache.org> ---
This is as expected.

Tomcat 8.5.x is required (by the Java EE specification) to run on Java 7. The
version of ECJ that ships with Tomcat 8.5.x is the most recent that runs on
Java 7.

Tomcat has been written so that if you replace the ECJ Jar with a newer version
(and run on a newer version of Java) you can compile against more recent
versions of Java. The other option is to switch to using Ant as the compiler.
