Robert Scholte closed MENFORCER-368.
------------------------------------
Assignee: Robert Scholte
Resolution: Won't Fix
{{RequireJavaVersion}} refers first of all to the Java Runtime Envirnment for
Maven, which is often also used for tools like javac and javadoc.
If you want to use a different JDK for compilation, toolchains is indeed your
friend.
With the maven-toolchains-plugin you can specify the version based on a range,
so I don't see the need to provide a more finegrained solution with an enforcer
rule.

> Key: MENFORCER-368
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MENFORCER-368
> Project: Maven Enforcer Plugin
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Standard Rules
> Affects Versions: 3.0.0-M3
> Reporter: Delany
> Assignee: Robert Scholte
> Priority: Major
>
> It seems the *requireJavaVersion* rule checks the version of the *java*
> executable. But I can set a java version of 8 and a *javac* version of 15
> using `update-alternatives --config javac`
> Suggest allowing a finer evaluation by adding configuration properties java,
> javac, and whatever else might be important. Maybe also a *versions* property
> for all.
