Richard N. Hillegas commented on DERBY-6809:
--------------------------------------------
The trunk is compiled into Java 9 byte code so that Derby will run on any
module-aware JVM. The byte code level is set by the min.version variable in
tools/ant/properties/defaultcompiler.properties. That variable, in turn, is
picked up by the source and target attributes of all <javac> invocations in the
build scripts.

> Netbeans, and take advantage of the new features in JDK 1.8 for better
> multiuser performance and better utilization of current day multicore
> processors?
> Plainly put, can we have from 11.0 onwards a version of derby which takes
> advantage of the advancements and new features in java 1.8 ...
