[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] (DROOLS-537) Use maven plugins (animal-sniffer?) to ensure that code and dependencies conform to the supported minimum version

Petr Široký commented on DROOLS-537:
------------------------------------

I checked that all the repos (master branch) can be successfully built with the animal-sniffer plugin enabled. Tried with Oracle JDKs 6,7,8. Still need to measure the impact on the build speed.

> Every now and then, one of us uses syntax or a class from a higher version of Java than what we use. 
> Or otherwise, one of us will use a dependency that's been compiled in Java X+1 while the build is based on Java X. 
> Can we prevent discovering these mistakes too late by using the animal-sniffer plugin? 
> One of the more important points here is that using the animal-sniffer (or another plugin that can be used for this) must *not* significantly delay  or prolong the build!
