             Summary: Mix of Java 1.7 and 1.8
                 Key: XERCESJ-1789
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XERCESJ-1789
             Project: Xerces2-J
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Elliotte Rusty Harold


Commit c11095d on Jan 23, 2024 drive-by upgraded the build from Java 1.7 to 
Java 1.8. However, it did not upgrade various other docs and comments, and 
possibly other things.

This change should probably be rolled back. Requiring a new major version of 
Java should not be a casual decision in a PR focused on something else. 

Even if we do decide we want to set Java 1.8 as the minimum for future 
releases, that needs to be done in its own PR along with updates of all docs 
and comments that still reference Java 1.7. Furthermore, we'd want at least a 
minor version, maybe a major version upgrade. This is not something we should 
do in moving from 2.12.2 to 2.12.3.
