In this answer, We have shared how do you specify the Java compiler version in a pom.xml file? For example, if you want to use the Java 8 language features (-source 1.8) and also want the compiled classes to be compatible with JVM 1.8 (-target 1.8), you can either add the two following properties, which are the default property names for the plugin parameters:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 | <project> [...] <build> [...] <plugins> <plugin> <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId> <artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId> <version>3.8.1</version> <configuration> <source>1.8</source> <target>1.8</target> </configuration> </plugin> </plugins> [...] </build> [...] </project> |
