[jira] [Commented] (MJAVADOC-562) Ability to pass --release to Javadoc tool

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MJAVADOC-562?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16733794#comment-16733794 ] 

Gili commented on MJAVADOC-562:
-------------------------------

I dropped mention of adding support for **-source** because **--release** implies **-source** plus a bootclasspath. This is supposed to be the correct way to do it moving forward.

> Users of the {{maven-compiler-plugin}} are able to build in one compiler version while targeting an older version. We need the same ability for this plugin.
> Justification: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8212233
> Workaround: Build the project using the same JDK version as the project is targetting.
