markt-asf commented on issue #150: Add compiler source and target support for 
all Java versions over 10
URL: https://github.com/apache/tomcat/pull/150#issuecomment-475197867
 
 
   Hmm. If you pass "12" or "13" directly to ECJ it silently switches to the 
latest version it knows - currently 11. Whereas Tomcat would log a warning and 
switch to the minimum Java version required by the spec (Java 8 for Tomcat 9). 
Applying this patch would mean "12" was equivalent to "11" until ECJ supports 
Java 12. The silent switching makes me uneasy. I'm going to see if there is a 
way to get at the version actually being used. From that we could generate a 
suitable warning.
