> As discussed in the mailing list, the convention plugin is uncapable of analysing web applications that have classes compiled with class versions higher than 52. This blocks users that compile their web app projects with Java 9, 10 or 11.
> Excerpt from the mailing list discussion:
> I have taken a look at the struts-2-5-x branch in github. There is a global property in the {{struts-parent}} of that defines the version for ASM:
> {{<asm.version>5.2</asm.version>}}
> The {{struts-master}} pom of the current github *master branch* has:
> {{<asm.version>7.0</asm.version>}}
> But when I look into {{DefaultClassFinder$InfoBuildingVisitor}} class (line 461) of the *master branch* there is still ASM 5 used:
> {{public class InfoBuildingVisitor extends ClassVisitor {}}
>  {{        private Info info;}}
>  {{        private ClassFinder classFinder;}}
> {{        public InfoBuildingVisitor(ClassFinder classFinder) {}}
>              *{{super(Opcodes.ASM5);}}*
>  {{            this.classFinder = classFinder;}}
>  \{{        }}}
> So first step would be to change this coupling to ASM's version 7 API and check how this affects classes compiled with Java 8 or below.
