This results in if some of this projects ends up being rebuild with Java 8 it might start using Java 8 bytecode resulting in some parts of Eclipse not working or even not starting at all. I consider this as bugs in individual packages. If someone wants to make effort to list Eclipse dependencies (or Fedora Java packages, in general) which are compiled with default source/target and thus defaulting to 1.8 then I am willing to fix or help fixing these bugs. -- Mikolaj Izdebski Software Engineer, Red Hat IRC: mizdebsk -- java-devel mailing list java-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/java-devel
