Sandro Martini commented on PIVOT-895: -------------------------------------- This issue is superseded now by: PIVOT-998, by updating requirements (and code, thanks to the new syntax and language features) to the current release, Java 8 > Update requirements to Java 7 > ----------------------------- > > Key: PIVOT-895 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIVOT-895 > Project: Pivot > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Sandro Martini > Assignee: Sandro Martini > Labels: build, dependencies, java > Fix For: 2.1, 2.1.0 > > > Now that Java 6 is going in Out-of-Life (and support without paying for it) > it's time to update dependencies and require Java 7 as a minimum version to > build and run Pivot Applications. > Of course maintenance branch 2.0.x will stay with Java 6 as requirements. > Some related info: > http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/eol-135779.html > http://www.infoq.com/news/2012/08/ava-6-eol-extended > And then, verify if disable (not delete for now) existing jobs on Jenkins > that builds the trunk with Java 6 ... anyway they could be useful to see if > we have some incompatibility with Java 6. > Then, we can even remove few little tricks due to bugs (not fixed) in Java 6. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.4.14#64029)
