> But it can still apply source or target when compiling against Java 8? Yes, but this is not useful since the plugin requires Java 17 for execution anyway. Therefore, user should specify `--release 8` instead, except when using forked JVM. If we keep default values for source and target, then in the current version of compiler plugin 4, the configuration needs to look like that: ```xml <source/> <!-- Erase the source configuration inherited from the parent pom --> <target/> <release>8</release> ``` -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
