> Freemarker 2.3.33 introduced an issue with Java 8 because it introduced a
> files for newer versions of Java. This seems to introduce issues in some
> application servers, as well as with the Maven Enforcer Plugin when it checks
> for bytecode compatibility with Java 8. This issue was resolved in version
> 2.3.34 of Freemarker
> ([https://freemarker.apache.org/docs/versions_2_3_34.html)] with PR110:
> [https://github.com/apache/freemarker/pull/110]
> Struts 6 still has not updated to the latest version of Freemarker to resolve
> this issue, unlike version 7. But Struts 6 still targets older versions of
> the JEE spec with Java EE, that still support Java 8, so this can cause
> compatibility issues if the project using Struts does not explicitly replace
> the Freemarker dependency with the latest version.
