[MCOMPILER-426] dedicated option for enabling preview feature

[jira-importer]

Clément Guillaume opened MCOMPILER-426 and commented

Would it make sense to add a new parameter for enabling preview features?

The javac compiler implementation would transform it to a --enable-preview argument

I think a similar work has been done for -parameters MCOMPILER-298

 

With this feature it become easy for tool like m2e to automatically configure the IDE base on the maven configuration (see https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=518218)

Thank for implementing this. This feature would also be useful when using the eclipse compiler (same flag). (I may try to implement this myself)
