Hello I started to utilize some GIS functionalities within our analysis software. Since we switched to Java8/JavaFX already a year ago I like to use the 0.5-jdk8-SNAPSHOT.
Some utility classes however are still pending on geotoolkit. I also like to analyze the supplied geotoolkit demos to get an impression of how things work together. Thus I currently try to use/compile geotoolkit 4.x-SNAPSHOT against apache.sis 0.5-jdk8-SNAPSHOT. I simply changed: <sis.version>0.5-jdk8-SNAPSHOT</sis.version> and added the Apache snapshot repository. Only a small problem occurred: JDK8.print/parseDateTime functions are called which are dropped from 0.5-jdk8-SNAPSHOT. This may be fixed easily but I wonder if there are more compatibility issues to prevent me from using sis 0.5-jdk8-SNAPSHOT with geotoolkit? May be I missed some jdk8 branch for geotools? (will geotools be resolved completely some day?) Else a JDK8.java stub might simply be reintroduced @Deprecated to 0.5-jdk8-SNAPSHOT just to delegate those methods to java.time.format directly. Dieter.
