> The generation of Struts Taglib TLD files relies on annotation processing
> with the apt tool, wrapped by maven-apt-plugin.
> In JDK 7 apt has been
> [deprecated|http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/technotes/guides/apt/GettingStarted.html]
> in favor of [JSR 269|https://jcp.org/en/jsr/detail?id=269]. In JDK 8 apt
> tool has been [removed completely|http://openjdk.java.net/jeps/117].
> In effect, Struts core and all tag library projects relying on the
> struts-annotation helper library won't build any longer under JDK 8. A major
> effort is needed to introduce a compatible replacement.
