If I am using source of a netbeans module set to JDK 8 under NB 8.0.1 than I am getting always such compile errors: warning: Supported source version 'RELEASE_7' from annotation processor 'org.netbeans.modules.openide.modules.PatchedPublicProcessor' less than -source '1.8' If I switch to back to source 1.7 for that module I am getting the warning: warning: [options] bootstrap class path not set in conjunction with -source 1.7 Therefore actual it is not possible to compile a module without any warnings. The issue is just that under source 1.8 I am getting about 20 lines of warnings which makes it hard to remove the other warning which are real warnings from my code. I had the same issues with NB 7.0/7.1/7.2. It seems that netbeans 8 is not made for jdk8 but also not for jdk 7. Something in between. It would be great if an update to the annotation processor could be made so that I can start to use JDK8 in my platform application. Clemens
I have the same problem. Is there any workaround?
Happens also on Windows.
You can get rid of the warning: [options] bootstrap class path not set in conjunction with -source 1.7 by compiling on JDK7. So the workaround is easy - e.g. making P4. Annotation processors are hard to write with prediction of future language changes. We can update them now to not emit warnings on JDK8. But the code to do so is not really straightforward.
Btw. I am making this bug PatchedPublicProcessor specified. Other processors would need to be handled separatelly.
Following change should do it: http://hg.netbeans.org/ergonomics/rev/619fea60d4ab and probably this is the trick that other processors can use as well.
