Thanks for the response, Stefan.
Christian, FTR, the LDAP API now requires java 7, and won't build with Java 6, unless we revert numerous changes we have introduced (mainly about the diamond <> operator being widely used in the code). I don't mean it would be impossible, but it would be tedious... In any case, that would be on you, we don't support anymore Java 6. There are also other reasons, like the cryptography supported by Java 6 vs Java 7 (see http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/technotes/guides/security/enhancements-7.html) Hope it helps Le 28/06/2017 à 09:44, Cristian Senchiu a écrit : > Thank you Stefan! > Somehow I totally overlooked that part. > > Regards, > Cristian. > > > Cristian Senchiu > Software Research & Development > > Viamedici Software GmbH > Herzstr. 14 > 76275 Ettlingen > Germany > > Phone:+49/7243/9498-59 > Fax:+49/7243/9498-99 > > e-mail:c.senc...@viamedici.de > URL:www.viamedici.de > > HRB 362615, Amtsgericht Mannheim > Geschaeftsfuehrer: Juergen Mueller > -----Original Message----- > From: Stefan Seelmann [mailto:m...@stefan-seelmann.de] > Sent: Tuesday, June 27, 2017 9:06 PM > To: api@directory.apache.org > Subject: Re: LDAP API 1.0.0 - support for Java 6? > > On 06/27/2017 12:31 PM, Cristian Senchiu wrote: >> Hello, >> >> Just a short question: is there any distribution that can be used for Java 6? > No, LDAP API 1.0.0 only works with Java 7 and 8 (and maybe 9?). > >> In the "Developer Guide > Coding standards" >> (http://directory.apache.org/api/developer-guide.html) that Java 6 is used >> to build the project. > This just talks about "new" language features to use :) > > Otherwise https://directory.apache.org/api/java-api.html says "This API > requires Java 7 or upper." > > Kind Regards, > Stefan > -- Emmanuel Lecharny Symas.com directory.apache.org
