Tim Allison commented on TIKA-3735: ----------------------------------- Have we decided to hold off on Java 11 until 3.x? I opened TIKA-3948 as if we had...I thought we had on the dev list? What do you think? > Require Java 11 for 2.x at some point > ------------------------------------- > > Key: TIKA-3735 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-3735 > Project: Tika > Issue Type: Task > Reporter: Tim Allison > Priority: Major > > This follows on from discussion we had on the user/dev list for when we want > to require Java 11. I think the consensus was: wait until we have to. > The following libraries require > Java 8 at the moment. I don't think > updating any of these is critical, but I do want to document where we're > stuck. > We can modify/edit this list as necessary: > * Apache OpenNLP 2.0.0 requires Java 11. > * DL4J 1.0.0-M2.1 - datavec-data-image-1.0.0-M2.1.jar requires Java 11 > * Lucene 9.x -- used in tika-eval > * icu4j -- we can't upgrade past 62.2 (April 2019) because that is the latest > version that is compatible with Lucene 8.11.1 > (https://github.com/apache/tika/pull/587) > * mime4j -- the last 2 (or three?) releases have been accidentally built with > Java 9 without the correct release=8. This should be fixed in the next > release. > * Fakeload > * > [checkstyle|https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/#label/lists%2Ftika/WhctKKXXHvjnJRRdBSwLbKkDkXQtRnWGDhblVMQQZhjsDGrFpRMRQJJrZSdskrNCqcmTtjL] > * errorprone requires Java 11 for the build (doesn't mean we can't target 8) -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.20.10#820010)
