Thanks for handling that. The Jenkins instance I created is running JDK 17 for that reason.

In particular, I updated the jobs to run using Java 11 instead of Java 8. The reason I changed this is because Jenkins seems to require Java 11 as the minimum version now, as mentioned in this blog post from earlier this year: https://www.jenkins.io/blog/2022/06/28/require-java-11/ I discovered the new minimum requirement after I noticed that some of our builds were failing intermittently with the following message: java.lang.UnsupportedClassVersionError: hudson/remoting/Launcher has been compiled by a more recent version of the Java Runtime (class file version 55.0), this version of the Java Runtime only recognizes class file versions up to 52.0 Class file version 55.0 is used by Java 11 and class file version 52.0 is used by Java 8. To be clear, this change only affects ci-builds.apache.org, and Royale can still be built with Java 8 in other environments. -- Josh Tynjala Bowler Hat LLC <https://bowlerhat.dev>
