Karl Heinz Marbaise commented on MSHADE-393: -------------------------------------------- Done in [33273411d30377773bc866bba46ec5f2fc39e60b|https://gitbox.apache.org/repos/asf?p=maven-shade-plugin.git;a=commitdiff;h=33273411d30377773bc866bba46ec5f2fc39e60b] > Upgrade project from Java 7 to 8 > -------------------------------- > > Key: MSHADE-393 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MSHADE-393 > Project: Maven Shade Plugin > Issue Type: Task > Affects Versions: 3.2.4 > Reporter: Alexander Kriegisch > Assignee: Karl Heinz Marbaise > Priority: Major > Fix For: 3.4.0 > > > If there is no specific reason forcing us to stay on Java source and target > level 7, I suggest upgrading to Java 8. When working on pull requests, it > felt quite uncomfortable not being able to use streams, interface default > methods, lambdas. > Is there a huge user base using Java 7 and still relying on Maven Shade > upgrades? I.e. they want the latest features and bugfixes, but are unable to > migrate to Java 8. That would be quite a sense of entitlement on their part. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.20.1#820001)
