--------------------------------------
Summary: Change default source/target option to be a bit more
modern
Key: MCOMPILER-362
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MCOMPILER-362
Project: Maven Compiler Plugin
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: theminecoder
With the impending release of Java 11, I think it's about time that we update
the source/target compiler options to something that isn't (at the time of
writing) 4 major versions behind.
With the amount of libraries that require at least Java 8 and Java 8 being the
current LTS version, I would like to propose that we change the default to be
at least a minimum of Java 8, with the option to change back to the older
compiler versions like how we have to switch to Java 8 currently.
