------------------------------------
Summary: Add java prerequisites for packaging "maven-plugin"
Key: MNG-7388
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-7388
Project: Maven
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Konrad Windszus
Currently only the minimum Maven version can be explicitly required for a Maven
plugin via {{prerequisites->maven}}. The same should be possible for the Java
version, as Maven plugins compiled for Java 11 won't run on Java 8 and
currently only emit the nasty "UnsupportedClassVersion" errors.
The plugin reporting plugin uses some heuristics in
https://github.com/apache/maven-plugin-tools/blob/c6d0808b92423b969f8d2aac500b7263399d0373/maven-plugin-plugin/src/main/java/org/apache/maven/plugin/plugin/PluginReport.java#L739,
but this is only considered for the plugin documentation but never at run time.
This requires a Maven model change though, and therefore can only end up in
Maven 5.
