Please Support Java 8 Again

[ahmad2702]

We want to use docwriter in our java 8 project. But docwriter requires java 17.

From my analysis, in order to make docwriter compatible with java 8 again, it is required...

• to downgrade docx4j-JAXB-ReferenceImpl to version 8.3.4, which works with java 8.
• to update maven.compiler.source/maven.compiler.target from pom.xml and .settings/org.eclipse.jdt.core.prefs
• to remove the java 17 syntax from org.ingomohr.docwriter.docx.SimpleDocxProcessor and org.ingomohr.docwriter.docx.examples.DocWriterExampleForSimpleDocxProcessorHorizontalRule Tested on my local machine. All unit tests passed.

Please support java 8 as before :)
