            Bug ID: 63309
           Summary: Javac should not require modulepath with source, and
                    target < 9
           Product: Ant
           Version: 1.10.1
          Hardware: PC
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Core tasks
          Assignee: [email protected]
          Reporter: [email protected]
  Target Milestone: ---

In a basic Jar project, with source=target=1.8, I am getting this message:

  either srcdir or modulesourcepath attribute must be set!

While this might make perfect sense with source=target=9, it is (at best)
surprising, and unnecessary in a 1.8 project.

What's worse: In the special case of modules, it is far from obvious what to
fill in here, at least without some knowledge of Java 9. (The error message
could help with that.)
