            Bug ID: 69729
           Summary: Unable to build POI 5.4.1 with JDK 8
           Product: POI
           Version: 5.4.1-FINAL
          Hardware: PC
            Status: NEW
          Severity: critical
          Priority: P2
         Component: POI Overall
          Assignee: dev@poi.apache.org
          Reporter: shilpa...@gmail.com
  Target Milestone: ---

I use apache-poi and related libraries in my project. Recently came across the 
vulnerabilities and fix for them are in the latest version of Apache-poi:-5.4.1

TO build the source code with JDK 8 (JDK 8 is what used in my project) I
downloaded the source code from:
https://poi.apache.org/download.html#POI-5.4.1

However, building the source code results in the errors indicating that POI and
sub modules doesn't support JDK -8. 
Following modules in specific: poi-ooxml-lite-agent and even other modules
under poi. Infact source code uses module-path and other features not supported
in Java -8.

However, JDK support metrics clearly calls out that POI supports JDK-8 : 
https://poi.apache.org/ 
as " POI requires Java 8 or newer since version 4.0.1."

Can you confirm if POI can be build with JDK 8 ?
