[DISCUSSION] RAT does not build with JDK9 - upgrade to at least Java 1.6 language level needed

Hi,

just ran a local build of RAT with JDK9 ....

[ERROR] Failed to execute goal
org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-compiler-plugin:3.7.0:compile
(default-compile) on project apache-rat-api: Compilation failure:
Compilation failure:
[ERROR] Source option 1.5 is no longer supported. Use 1.6 or later.
[ERROR] Target option 1.5 is no longer supported. Use 1.6 or later.
[ERROR] -> [Help 1]


which raises the old discussion of updating to at least JDK 1.6?

What do you think - can I file an issue for 0.13 to run with at least JDK6?


Cheers,
Phil

Whatever works. (Apart from Kyrl-Heinz possibly working on any problems.)

Hi,

thanks for your feedback -
what's the minimal maven version to use/require?
(current setting is 2.2.1)

INFRA's feedback was that building with JDK8 (as all other JDKs are
deprecated on ASF infrastructure) and Maven 3.0.5 will not work ....
https://builds.apache.org/job/Creadur-Rat/358/console

Caused by: java.lang.NoSuchMethodError:
org.codehaus.plexus.util.xml.pull.MXParser.<init>(Lorg/codehaus/plexus/util/xml/pull/EntityReplacementMap;)V

After that I upgraded to Maven 3.3.9 and the build is green again.

Thanks
Phil

To me, supporting Java 9 is much more important than Java 5. So, please,
go on.
