> Mix of Java 1.7 and 1.8

> Key: XERCESJ-1789

> Project: Xerces2-J
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: Elliotte Rusty Harold
> Priority: Blocker
>
> 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.
