I'm trying to build a Dynamic Web Application in eclipse using Java 8 (and Wildfly appServer if that matters) but I'm unable to make Eclipse Luna M5 use Java 8 (I do have Java 8 BETA support installed and it works on JavaSE projects).
But after I do maven -> update project I get the following error:
Couldnot update project ExampleApp configuration
Version1.8 of project facet java does not exist.
And indeed there is no java 1.8 project facet under project->preferences->project facets->java
Can I manually create such facet and add It to to eclipse or I'll have to wait until java 8 is released and the eclipse guys decide to add it ?
There are additional patches available for Kepler SR2 officially.In ecliplse, go to "Help" --> "Market Place" --> Search for java 8 kepler.Then choose and install the following.
install Java 8 support eclipse kepler sr2,
Java 8 Facets for web tools eclipse kepler sr2
Java 8 support for m2e for Eclipse Kepler SR2 (if required)
