[jira] [Updated] (MPLUGIN-424) Allow a maven-plugin to require a Java version

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MPLUGIN-424?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Konrad Windszus updated MPLUGIN-424:
------------------------------------
    Description: 
Currently a Maven plugin can only require a minimum Maven version via pom's prerequisites (https://maven.apache.org/pom.html#Prerequisites). There is currently no means to require a minimum Java version.
I would suggest to slightly expand the plugin descriptor to include a minimumJavaVersion element there as well and evaluate that before executing a plugin goal and emit a good error message. The default Java version could be determined by the target class file version.
