Since SonarSource gives us no information as to when Java versions beyond 11 will be supported (…) I’ve tried to run analysis with JDK 14 using sonar.java.target=11. My idea is that while using JDK 14 (which I require for jpackager) I can still create Java 11 byte code and thus sonar should work just fine.
However I still get:
[rli@rlimbus CLI]$ gradlew -Dsonar.java.target=11 sonarqube
> Task :project:libs:CLI:sonarqube
Unable to create symbol table for : /home/rli/devel/repository/source/java/project/libs/CLI/src/main/java/com/synedra/util/cli/Command.java
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Unsupported class file major version 58
I’ve also tried to specify the property in build.gradle to no avail.
So while my project really has Java 11 - bytecode:
[rli@rlimbus CLI]$ file build/classes/java/main/com/synedra/util/cli/Command.class
build/classes/java/main/com/synedra/util/cli/Command.class: compiled Java class data, version 55.0
it seems like sonar is recompiling behind the scenes for analysis and will not take into account the sonar.java.target property.
Any hint appreciated
