Version 1.8 of project facet java does not exist

Question

I\'m trying to build a Dynamic Web Application in eclipse using Java 8 (and Wildfly appServer if that matters) but I\'m unable to make Eclipse Luna M5 use Java

Answer 1

There is an official bug report/patch for Kepler SR2. It also works with Spring Tool Suite 3.5.0.RC4 (which is based on Kepler). It should work for Luna too.

Bug report : https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=430637 (see comment #12)
