For a headless build, I've tried setting 'javacSource' and 'javacTarget' to 1.9 and 1.11, but these values apparently are not recognized properly, because the build fails with errors that indicate the Java compliance level is set to the the default 1.3, e.g.,

Syntax error, parameterized types are only available if source level is 1.5 or greater

Using the value 1.8 works. Am I wrong in thinking that this is a bug in Eclipse 4.11? Or do I have the naming convention wrong for the Java version. I'm trying to build with Java 11.
