Martin Malina commented on JBIDE-17126:
---------------------------------------

I would like to add that this probably does not affect maven projects as they don't use runtimes for classpath entries. So they don't need the runtime to be bound to the java facet and you're free to set up the facet to any version you like regardless of your target runtime.

> Currently you cannot use java 1.8 facet for WildFly 8 runtime.
> I'm not actually sure if WildFly 8.0 will support java 8 or it's only in 8.1.
> Also, we're still not certain if we need a new server/runtime type for 8.1 - perhaps if 8.0 does not support java 8 and 8.1 does, that's one reason to have them separate?
