I also ran into this problem recently. I can confirm that pinning the source and target to 1.8 is not enough to get it to work with higherJava versions.
Likewise, I would be curious to know whether anything related to this issue is in the works. We are being advised to move on from Java 8 and can't seem to figure out a workaround.
Me too- I am trying to convert up and cannot upgrade this
I ran into some issues when trying to compile and package this using Java12. The compile and source target pinning to Java 1.8 seems not to be sufficient. There were exceptions regarding API incompatibilities and Exceptions during javadoc creation.
In the end, I installed Java8 - and everything worked fine with that one. Unfortunately Java8 is already out of support for users without Java SE subscription.
I was searching for any reference or PR point to a Java version update but haven't found any. Is anything planned with regard to this?
