Description

I downloaded the Commons Beanutils 1.9.4 release from https://dlcdn.apache.org//commons/beanutils/source/commons-beanutils-1.9.4-src.tar.gz

And attempted to build it following the instructions at https://commons.apache.org/proper/commons-beanutils/building.html

But encountered the following errors from Maven:

[*ERROR*] COMPILATION ERROR :

[*INFO*] -------------------------------------------------------------

[*ERROR*] Source option 6 is no longer supported. Use 7 or later.

[*ERROR*] Target option 6 is no longer supported. Use 7 or later.

[*INFO*] 2 errors

My Environment:
