Re: [jakarta.ee-community] targeting JDK 8 *and* JDK 11?

Carlos,

You replaced Java 8 with 11 in your MP tool chain, I cannot see any double execution of Maven Compiler, so you may have fixed the Javadoc issue at the cost of no longer working with Java 8.

The Moneta RI builds against Java 9 to 11 without problems, but we also use the dual compile option of Maven Compiler and both API and RI work with Java 8 demos.

Hello folks

I already pass for this javadoc plugin issue with java 11 on mp fault tolerance spec if you wanna check below is a pull request that is compiling with java 11

I hope that maybe can help you

Thank you

Best

the drawback of this particular solution is that the correctness of
module descriptor is not being checked at compile time by javac - ie if
ServiceLoader is used by the code being compiled, javac can detect
missing 'use' declaration in module-info and fail eventually; in the
setup used by jaxb-api, module-info is compiled against class files, so
no such check is being done.

This as such may or may not be a problem depending on the complexity of
the project in question and personal knowledge of its internals.

blame buggy maven-javadoc-plugin here[1]; what must work for me is 'mvn
clean install' and 'mvn clean install -Poss-release' (with
-Dgpg.skip=true eventually). I treat 'javadoc:javadoc' as nice to have
thing, so unless there is a strong wish and demand for that, it is
unlikely that I'll be putting in some solution for it (read as "IMHO too
much work for a little gain")

yes, I made that work - removing lines related to '--patch-module' and
'--module-source-path' options and explicitly adding '--source-path'
pointing to the main source roots (src/main/java etc) helped

thanks,
