Keir commented on MCOMPILER-315: -------------------------------- Ok I was able to get it working, not sure exactly what was going wrong for me, though would still be good to better understand default-compile and base-compile. > "Older projects with module-info" documentation does not work > ------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MCOMPILER-315 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MCOMPILER-315 > Project: Maven Compiler Plugin > Issue Type: Bug > Affects Versions: 3.7.0 > Reporter: Keir > Attachments: pom.xml > > > I copied and pasted the 2nd snipped from > https://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-compiler-plugin/examples/module-info.html > , amending it to refer to Java 8 rather than 6, however the jar produced by > mvn package is still only consumable by Java 9 as all classes appear to have > been compiled to its version. Is there something else I need to do to get > this to work? If so, the documentation could be clearer. Or have I > misunderstood something? I have attached the pom in question. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.4.14#64029)
