Fredrik Roubert commented on DIRSTUDIO-1309:
--------------------------------------------

With PR #43 now merged, Directory Studio is now using Eclipse 4.24 which is the 
last version possible to use with Java 11. The project now needs to be updated 
to use Java 17 to make it possible to upgrade to a current version of Eclipse.

> Update to use a contemporary version of Eclipse

> After [PR #36|https://github.com/apache/directory-studio/pull/36] was merged, 
> the platform currently used is Eclipse 4.22 (2021-12) which soon is going to 
> be 2 years old.
> It would be good to update to use a contemporary version ahead of time, 
> before some important bugfix or feature makes it necessary (and stressful) to 
> do.
> Directory Studio currently has JDK 11 as a stated prerequisite, so an update 
> to Eclipse 4.24 (2022-06) can be done immedately, without having to change 
> anything else:
> https://wiki.eclipse.org/Eclipse/Installation
> The already pending [PR 
> #43|https://github.com/apache/directory-studio/pull/43] will do that.
> After that, the minimum JDK version will have to be updated to 17 before 
> updating the platform further.
