Hi,

the "var" keyword is solely implemented on the compiler level, yes? So then, is it possibly to give an ECJ compiler flag that allows me to use the var keyword in code compiled for Java 8?

I'd really like to keep Java 8 compatibility, but the var keyword is so incredibly convenient...

Greetings,

Stefan
