Java 8 support broken

See original GitHub issue

After updating to the latest release (v1.2) we’re now getting the following error when running our scans:

The plugin [aemrules] does not support Java 1.8.0_111: com/cognifide/aemrules/AemRulesSonarPlugin 
has been compiled by a more recent version of the Java Runtime (class file version 55.0), 
this version of the Java Runtime only recognizes class file versions up to 52.0

Was dropping Java 8 support intentional? If not, I think just setting the Maven compiler plugin’s source/target settings to 1.8 would fix it.

I have the same Problem with our Company. We have some projects still on Java8 so I had to uninstall the Plugin for everyone. Would it be possible to disable the analysis via configuration or just skipping the AEM Rules part if the project is using Java8? Right now it breaks the build which is rather unfortunate.

I have the same problem. We can use java 11 for sonarqube task only. This is inconsistency though.
