[jira] [Commented] (LOG4J2-2426) Building Log4j 2.11.1 with only Java 8

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-2426?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16597745#comment-16597745 ] 

Matt Sicker commented on LOG4J2-2426:
-------------------------------------

Java 9 (or 10, 11 pre-release) is required only to build the Java 9 specific modules. If you are trying to repackage log4j from source without it, it might work by excluding that module from the build.

> Is it possible to build log4j using only Java 8 ?
> I currently get the following error when trying to build it without java 9 path in my toolchain file.
> [ERROR] Failed to execute goal org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-toolchains-plugin:1.1:toolchain (default) on project log4j-api-java9: Cannot find matching toolchain definitions for the following toolchain types:
> [ERROR] jdk [ version='[9, )' ]
> We are unable to the rest of our components, namely the Oracle database to java 9. Which is where java stored procedures(using log4j) will be run.
