I made a copy of a project in NB 8 and opened it in NB 11. Got some errors 
which were resolved OK.

But it won't build - I get a warning and 2 errors:

warning: [options] bootstrap class path not set in conjunction with -source 6

error: Source option 6 is no longer supported. Use 7 or later.

error: Target option 6 is no longer supported. Use 7 or later.
BUILD FAILED (total time: 0 seconds)

I can't see any way of changing this as there aren't any project options to 
change the source or target, even if I knew what they were referring to.

Stackoverflow gives remedies for this, but only for Maven. This project was 
built using Ant in NB 8 which I assume is carried over to NB 11.

The only likely reference that I can see is in build-impl.xml which is firmly 
marked "DO NOT EDIT"! But the comment implies that the properties aren't being 
overridden correctly.

           <target depends="-pre-init,-init-private" name="-init-user">
    
        <property file="${user.properties.file}"/>
    
        <!-- The two properties below are usually overridden -->
    
        <!-- by the active platform. Just a fallback. -->
    
        <property name="default.javac.source" value="1.6"/>
    
        <property name="default.javac.target" value="1.6"/>
    
    </target>


Any ideas where to go from here please?
