AFAIK in Kotlin you can still use

jvmTarget

But does that define the JVM version for the library or the project on my computer ?

library

Thanks for the information !

IIRC, make sure you also configure the

java.targetCompatibility

to get the appropriate

org.gradle.jvm.version

attribute value in the Gradle Module Metadata published with your library (https://docs.gradle.org/current/userguide/variant_attributes.html#sub:jvm_default_attributes)

isn’t kotlin doing that too?

I've had the problem with a Gradle plugin written in Kotlin (and

kotlin-dsl

sets the

jvmTarget

, at least in Gradle < 8 ), so better double check.
