Hi,

We value your dedication for testing even outdated JDK versions. As mentioned, you will need to provide the JDK versions yourself during build time (e.g. as suggested with a docker image).

Removal is long overdue for JDKs that went out of support years ago.

Regards,

Fred

EMF still has Java 5 BREE plugins. OCL layered on EMF likewise is Java 5 BREE in parts.

https://ci.eclipse.org/ocl/job/ocl-ecore-standalone/319/console

demonstrates that OCL (and so EMF) is still fit for purpose on the claimed BREE.

IMHO so long as EMF (and so OCL) claims a Java 5 BREE we must test it.

(Surely removal requires two years notice?)

Hi,

Triggered by https://gitlab.eclipse.org/eclipsefdn/helpdesk/-/issues/4011, we are announcing the removal of the following outdated JDKs from our list of available JDKs for builds in Jenkins:

* oracle-jdk5-latest /opt/tools/java/oracle/jdk-5/latest = 1.5.0u22
* oracle-jdk6-latest /opt/tools/java/oracle/jdk-6/latest = 1.6.0u45
* oracle-jdk7-latest /opt/tools/java/oracle/jdk-7/latest = 1.7.0u80

If you still use any of those JDKs, please consider upgrading to at least JDK 8. Any project that still has a good reason to use JDK 5,6 or 7 will need to create a dedicated docker image to continue using them.

Removal is scheduled for Monday, December 4, 2023.

Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns.

Regards,

Fred
