Then such module is only going to be enabled on JDK11. I like this proposal in principle. But since it appears that there is still the requirement to run the platform and the editor features on 8. This could be basically only set for new modules - everything which is already there must still work (tested etc) on 8 until 8 is *actually* dropped. In case i am missing something - what module would be a candidate for java.target=11 (as example)? best regards, michael --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@netbeans.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@netbeans.apache.org For further information about the NetBeans mailing lists, visit: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/NETBEANS/Mailing+lists
