Fatal error compiling: invalid target release: 9

Vio Ariton :

I use the Spring Dashboard in Eclipse to create the project. I've also tried creating it using Spring Initializr and tried both version 8 and 9 of java, but I still get this. Also tried to change the maven target. Run configuration, maven build is using the JavaSE1.8, jre 1.8.0.

For anyone having this problem, this How to resolve java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: javax/xml/bind/JAXBException in Java 9 solves it.
