We have set the `sourceCompatibility=8` https://github.com/apache/kafka/blob/trunk/build.gradle#L57 https://github.com/apache/kafka/blob/trunk/build.gradle#L318 I know that we can use JDK11 to build kafak which is compatible with JRE8. However, our rules is "we ought to run all checks/tests with all supported JDKs". That is why we need to make sure spotless can work with all supported JDKs. for another, we will drop JDK8 in next release. Hence, we can remove this workaround and upgrade spotless to newest version later. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
