Re: [tycho-dev] Tycho and Java8

I've heard that
* it is possible to change the JDT compiler jar used by the tycho-compiler-pluging - the Eclipse Platform/CBI uses this feature
* there is a JDT version which has rudimentary support for Java 8

I don't have any further details though. Hope you can get it to work.

Best regards
Tobias
