----------------------------------------

             Summary: Automatic detection of release option for JDK < 9
                 Key: MJAVADOC-787
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MJAVADOC-787
             Project: Maven Javadoc Plugin
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: javadoc
    Affects Versions: 3.6.3
            Reporter: Jorge Solórzano


The maven-compiler-plugin 3.13.0 now has detection of the release option:
* https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MCOMPILER-582

But this should be expanded to maven-javadoc-plugin as well, this will allow to use a global property like:

{code:xml}
<maven.compiler.release>${javaVersion}</maven.compiler.release>
{code}

and not fail if the javadoc is generated on JDK 8.
