Re: gwt 2.6.0-rc1 and jdk 8

On my side, I confirm this is a <sourceLevel> issue. Run mvn with -X and search for "-sourceLevel" in the output. If you didn't specify <sourceLevel> for the gwt-maven-plugin (or set the maven.compiler.source property) in your POM, then it'll default to 1.8 (note this is what the gwt-maven-plugin does, not GWT proper) which will cause the exception you're seeing.

I'll try to fail early (not call the GWT compiler) in the next verison of gwt-maven-plugin, and maybe GWT should also fail early if an invalid value is passed to sourceLevel.

I tried some different combinations of source levels, jdk versions, gwt versions. The exception occurs on pair jdk8 + gwt 2.6.0-rc1 It doesn't depend on source level.

Try setting <sourceLevel> explicitly in the gwt-maven-plugin configuration. By default, the gwt-maven-plugin will use the current JVM's source level (i.e. "1.8" for jdk8), and GWT only supports 1.6 and 1.7.

I create a trivial maven based gwt-project on gwt 2.6.0-rc1. The project compilation work fine on jdk7. But it interrupts with an exception jdk8-b117:
