Olivier Lamy commented on MJAVADOC-732:
---------------------------------------
are we ok to bump minimum version to 9 for this?
[https://docs.oracle.com/en/java/javase/21/docs/api/java.base/java/util/spi/ToolProvider.html]
```
@since 9
```
> Use javax.tools API for calling javadoc
> ---------------------------------------
>
> Key: MJAVADOC-732
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MJAVADOC-732
> Project: Maven Javadoc Plugin
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: javadoc
> Reporter: Konrad Windszus
> Priority: Major
>
> Currently javadoc is called as external process which makes
> consuming/exposing warnings and errors a bit cumbersome and also prevents
> proper m2e integration.
> As https://openjdk.org/jeps/106 added javadoc support to {{javax.tools}} with
> Java 8 it should be safe to adopt that given that m-javadoc-p has been
> updated to require Java 8 in MJAVADOC-675
