jcabi-maven-plugin – Weave your Java 8 classes

Weave your Java 8 classes

You have to setup source and target adding these lines in the configuration section of jcabi-maven-plugin in your pom.xml:

<configuration>
   <source>1.8</source>
   <target>1.8</target>
</configuration>

In addition you must insert as dependency a compatible version of AspectJ, for example the version 1.8.3. To do that, add these lines in the plugin section of jcabi-maven-plugin :

<dependency>
   <groupId>org.aspectj</groupId>
   <artifactId>aspectjrt</artifactId>
   <version>1.8.3</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
   <groupId>org.aspectj</groupId>
   <artifactId>aspectjtools</artifactId>
   <version>1.8.3</version>
</dependency>

At the end you will have these lines in the build section of your pom.xml:

<build>
   [...]
   <pluginManagement>
      [...]
      <plugin>
         <groupId>com.jcabi</groupId>
         <artifactId>jcabi-maven-plugin</artifactId>
         <version>0.10</version>
         <configuration>
            <source>1.8</source>
            <target>1.8</target>
         </configuration>
         <executions>
            <execution>

                  <goal>ajc</goal>
                  [...]
               </goals>
            </execution>
