Hi. As a related topic, I don't think travis-ci still supports openjdk6 in year 2020. travis-ci does HAVE a tutorial about how to add openjdk6 at: https://docs.travis-ci.com/user/reference/trusty/ BUT it is totally wrong. I followed that tutorial but it failed. https://github.com/apache/commons-jexl/blob/356f7b9c6ba931df2b8e75c8cf258c6dfecaaa70/.travis.yml
https://travis-ci.org/github/XenoAmess/commons-jexl/jobs/689474160 I have no idea why it failed nor how to run openjdk6 on travis-ci. If anybody have any solution to solve this problem please let me know. Thanks. Gary Gregory <[email protected]> 于2020年5月21日周四 上午1:14写道： > Drop Java 6, use Java 8 from my POV.
