Answer 1

I allow myself to update that subject with Java 11.

I have installed OpenJDK11 on my computer, and I wanted to use it in an app.

I had trouble because Eclipse would always change my JRE to JavaSE-1.5 when I updated my project with Maven.

I had set everything as you said, but I was always directly selecting in my Java Build Path "java-11-openjdk.x86_64" as one of my Alternante JRE. I fixed my problem by selecting in "Execution environment" JavaSE-10 (but you have to double click on it and then choose as a compatible JRE your OpenJDK11 version) as shown on the picture. Execution environment setup

The project will use Java 11 thanks to that (picture) but you have to write 10 for the java-version in the pom.xml and also set java 10 on the Project Facets.
