ready-api-maven-plugin not working in java jdk 11

Hi,

I followed this user guide:

https://support.smartbear.com/readyapi/docs/integrations/junit.html

put it in my pom.xml and it does not work.

        <version>2.9.8</version>
    </dependency>
</dependencies>

 

I get the following error:

Fatal error compiling: Illegal char <> at index 7: ../lib/.jar ->

I use java 11.

If I revert to java 8 it works though.

But I don't want to downgrade java.

    Please ensure with SmartBear support if the same is supported or not. There isn't any option for you to use jdk 8 if jdk 11 not supoorted yet.

      Hi Rao,

      thanks for your replay.

      Since Java 11 is listed LTS (Long-Term-Support) version

      is it possible to have this fix included in JDK 11 also?

       

      Kind Regards,

      Marcus

        I have no say.
        If you look at the issues above, it is already closed with resolution fixed in version 14.
