RE: Java 8 with Tapestry 5.3.x?

2014-08-05 Thread Tony Nelson
Heh, I'm still running one site with Tapestry 4 and Java 6.  And yes, it's 
still getting active updates.

My new version of the site is being written in 5.3.7 with Java 7, but I have 
another year or so at least according to the project plan, until it will be 
done.

 Subject: Java 8 with Tapestry 5.3.x?

 Is there an easy way to get Tapestry 5.3.7 to work with Java 8? Or is
 there a plan to release 5.3.8 that would be Java 8 compatible? The big
 reason I'm asking is that Java 7 goes EOL next April. I would love to
 start moving our applications over to libraries that support Java 8
 starting now so hopefully we can be off of Java 7 when it goes EOL.

 Thanks,
 Richard

I don't exactly want to swap an EOL'd JVM for a beta framework version. 
I look forward to using 5.4 once it is out of beta and released. 
However, it's not going to be a direct drop in for us like a new 5.3 
should be. And if I'm going to touch the code that much, I'd love to 
bring the older code out of Spring Security to the Shiro based 
tapestry-security, just adding to the work.

There's a plan to release 5.3.8 with Java 8 support, which is already done  
in Git, just not released as a JAR yet.
