What is the supported JDK version for json-path 2.4.0? I went through the homepage, https://github.com/json-path/JsonPath but I couldn't find the supported JDK version.
Why I'm looking for this information
I'm using JDK15 in my system and when I'm trying to use json-path 2.4.0, I'm getting the compilation error: The type java.lang.String can not be resolved.
However, when I change the compiler level to JDK8, the problem goes away.
My pom.xml:
