Hi, the interesting thing here is that we actually compile the code with -source and -target=1.6 in these branches [1][2]. However, the javac still uses the rt.jar coming from the current JDK and it does contain the java.nio package. It seems that the only way to check the API usage correctness is to switch to JDK 1.6.
Or maybe there’s some way to validate whether the used packages matches selected JDK version (eg. via some plugin reading the @since javadocs in API classes)?
