I am using JDK11 to compile code that is source=1.8, target=1.8 and release=1.8. That is, I am using JDK11 to produce code that can still function in a JRE8 world. My existing .classpath file indicates: <classpathentry kind="con" path="org.eclipse.jdt.launching.JRE_CONTAINER/org.eclipse.jdt.internal.debug.ui.launcher.StandardVMType/JavaSE-11"> On save, it is being altered to: <classpathentry kind="con" path="org.eclipse.jdt.launching.JRE_CONTAINER/org.eclipse.jdt.internal.debug.ui.launcher.StandardVMType/JavaSE-1.8"> -- Configuration Details -- Product: Eclipse IDE 4.17.0.20200910-1200 (org.eclipse.epp.package.jee.product)Installed Features: org.eclipse.jdt 3.18.500.v20200902-1800 Versioning Plugin: org.eclipse.platform 4.17.0.v20200902-1800

This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet. If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant. -- The automated Eclipse Genie.
