I tried using Java 8 features in the Java classes of my mixed Java/Groovy project and now the compilation fails.

Here you can see a minimal project that replicates the error: groovy-java8-bug.

The pom is configured according to the instructions in the wiki.

Tested with Maven 3.5.2:

Apache Maven 3.5.2 (138edd61fd100ec658bfa2d307c43b76940a5d7d; 2017-10-18T09:58:13+02:00)
Maven home: /opt/apache-maven-3.5.2
Java version: 1.8.0_144, vendor: Oracle Corporation
Java home: /usr/lib/jvm/java-8-openjdk/jre
Default locale: en_GB, platform encoding: UTF-8
OS name: "linux", version: "4.14.3-1-arch", arch: "amd64", family: "unix"

The error is triggered by adding:

<source>1.8</source>
<target>1.8</target>

to the maven-compiler-plugin configuration. Without those entries everything works but I can't use Java 8 features because it seems that source and target levels are set at 1.5.

Something tries to load the javax.lang.model.element.ModuleElement class that is only available in Java 9.
