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

             Summary: Compilation failure on IBM Java 8 beta 3
                 Key: UIMA-3853
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/UIMA-3853
             Project: UIMA
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Richard Eckart de Castilho
            Priority: Trivial
             Fix For: 2.1.0uimaFIT


found that using IBM Java 8 beta 3, the build from source failed (not in the
javadocs). 
using Oracle Java 8 or IBM Java 7 - build from source is ok.

IBM Java 8 reports this error

[ERROR] Failed to execute goal
org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-compiler-plugin:3.1:compile (default-compile) on
project uimafit-core: Compilation failure

This may be related to https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-4808  

Probably not a blocker, but investigation may show some easy work-around.
