I Karl Heinz,
I think that’s a really good idea … unfortunately I can’t seem to be able to
run the retrolambda plugin on jars, so I might setup little projects, that use
the dependency-plugin to unpack the jars and test-jars first and run the
retrolambda on them and then package them back. Eventually this might also help
running the testsuite a second time, but with Java7. Is there a way to have
maven execute tests with a different java version (Run maven with Java 8 and
execute the tests with Java 7)? Right now I’m relying on the animalsniffer
plugin to verify my java8 and java7 jars, but the others would feel more
comfortable if we really ran the tests with a different java version.

Hi,
I would make a separate module for java8 and run there the retrolambda-
maven-plugin and another separate module for java7 and run there the
retrolambda-
maven-plugin as well...than you can make a separate jar file for each ...
No need for different executions of the compiler plugins etc. and
separte output folders configurations etc.
This needs to use toolchains and then you can run with a single
run...all of them...
Just coming into my mind...
If i correctly understand you are developing in JDK 8 and than you would
like to offer a package which supports JDK 7 ..
So making a module with JDK 8 code in it pluse unit tests...
A separate module which uses the JDK 8 code as dependency and using the
retrolambda plugin and maybe some supplemental tests on it...using JDK 7
which can be handled with Toolchain...
Kind regards
