RE: LDAP API 1.0.0 - support for Java 6?

2017-06-28 Thread Cristian Senchiu 
Hi Emmanuel,

The hint with M31 is invaluable!
We are in fact on Java8, but now I need to design a quick migration to Java6. 
Being only a temporary solution I'll try the M31 and see how it goes.

Thank you again!
Cristian.

I would also add that the last version that support Java 6 - would you really 
need it - is LDAP API 1.0.0-M31.

Re: LDAP API 1.0.0 - support for Java 6?

2017-06-28 Thread Emmanuel Lécharny 
Thanks for the response, Stefan.


Christian, FTR, the LDAP API now requires java 7, and won't build with
Java 6, unless we revert numerous changes we have introduced (mainly
about the diamond <> operator being widely used in the code). I don't
mean it would be impossible, but it would be tedious... In any case,
that would be on you, we don't support anymore Java 6.


There are also other reasons, like the cryptography supported by Java 6
vs Java 7 (see
http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/technotes/guides/security/enhancements-7.html)


Hope it helps

No, LDAP API 1.0.0 only works with Java 7 and 8 (and maybe 9?).

This just talks about "new" language features to use :)

LDAP API 1.0.0 - support for Java 6?

2017-06-27 Thread Cristian Senchiu 
Hello,

Just a short question: is there any distribution that can be used for Java 6?
In the "Developer Guide > Coding standards" 
(http://directory.apache.org/api/developer-guide.html) that Java 6 is used to 
build the project.
Nevertheless when I javap the classes in the api-all distribution I get a major 
version of 51 (java 7)
For example:
javap -verbose  -cp C:\...\apache-ldap-api-1.0.0-bin\lib\api-all-1.0.0.jar 
org.apache.directory.api.ldap.model.cursor.CursorException  | findstr "major"

Many thanks,
Cristian.
