Emmanuel Bourg commented on BCEL-183:
-------------------------------------
The verifier does indeed adapt to the version of the classfile in some cases.
For example BCEL-174 fixed the validation of the interface methods to allow the
default methods with Java 8.
> Implement Java 7 field/method name validation rules
