Hi Ryan,

I have recently been working on upgrades to ctakes focused around vulnerability 
mitigation, so your question is very timely.

The current version in the github master branch 
https://github.com/apache/ctakes , 6.0.0-SNAPSHOT, should build and run with 
java 17.

I don't know of any plans to upgrade ctakes to java 22 any time soon.

Please try the 6.0.0-SNAPSHOT with jdk17 and let me know if you have any 
problems.

If you can contribute to the current ctakes vulnerability mitigation effort in 
any way, such as by providing a list of your exceptions, please do.

Thanks,

Sean

Subject: Upgrade to JDK 17 Inquiry [EXTERNAL]

* External Email - Caution *


Hello,

We have a major application using Apache cTakes for standardizing clinical 
laboratory results which has been running on Java 8, and we have had to operate 
with a security exception, and are now where we will need to assess if we can 
migrate to Java 17 or ultimately migrate entirely to a new paradigm and 
approach.  Has anyone assessed the effort, are there any breaking changes or 
compatibility issues, or dependency versioning conflicts that need to be 
addressed  to achieve an upgrade to running under Java 17 and soon, 22?

We are in favor of upgrading but we can only maintain the security exception 
for so long, and are now at a point where if it its either too large of an 
effort, or a ways out from achieving, we will need to migrate soon.

Thanks,
Ryan
