bmhm edited a comment on issue #58: [MENFORCER-288] Support new Java versioning schema for older versions. URL: https://github.com/apache/maven-enforcer/pull/58#issuecomment-565736113 Actually, `enforceVersion` compares the systemProperty against a **_version range_**. The version range must be normalized or each put through JavaVersion.parse(). But this will not help, because if the range says (6 through 8), JavaVersion.compare will not accept with a VersionRange argument. Example: I use ```xml <requireJavaVersion> <version>(,7),(7,)</version> <!-- not java 7 --> </requireJavaVersion> ``` Then I get `JavaVersion("1.7")` from the system property. The `compareTo` method is useless, and the version range cannot be normalized. I do not thing `getVersion` should be parsed before handling over to the `enforceVersion` method. Should it?
