             Summary: Add workaround for ANT bug to enable compile with Java 8 
on ANT 1.8.3. and 1.8.4
                 Key: LUCENE-5614
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-5614
             Project: Lucene - Core
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: general/build
            Reporter: Uwe Schindler
            Assignee: Uwe Schindler
             Fix For: 4.8, 4.9, 5.0


Ant has the following bug introduced in ANT 1.8.3 and 1.8.4. Unfortunately many 
computers are on this version (and MacOSX on 1.8.2):
https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=53347

I would like to change to minimum ANT 1.9.0, but this would make MacOSX user 
unhappy. The provided patch is a workaround to set the compiler version to 
"javac1.7" via ANT property, if the broken versions are used with Java 1.8.
