Hello everyone,we saw the release on a new Java LTS version in September, so it is high time we discuss its adoption.
As it currently stands (odlparent-13.0.10), we are targeting Java 17 and do not execute SFT when running with Java 21.
That will change with karaf-4.4.5, slated for odlparent-13.0.11, in that we do execute SFT with Java 21 and expect it to pass.a
Targeting maven.compiler.release=21 does not work, but that will be fixed in karaf-4.4.6. That is the only blocker I know of to have both YANG Tools and MD-SAL build passing when targeting Java 21.
From development environment perspective: - Fedora 40 is expected to ship Java 21 - Ubuntu 2020.04 and 2022.04 both can support Java 21- there is SDKMAN! allowing you to choose from any number of suppliers (https://sdkman.io/jdks) with very much up-to-date builds
With this perspective, I think our plan should be:- support running on Java 21 from odlparent-13.0.11 onwards, i.e. 2023.09 Potassium SR3 or later - build with both Java 17 (for release) and Java 21 (for validation) on 2024.03 Calcium SR1 or later, contingent on https://jira.linuxfoundation.org/plugins/servlet/desk/portal/2/IT-26285
- require Java 21 for 2024.09 Scandium onwardsUnless there are serious objections raised before March 15th 2024, this transition will be part of odlparent-14 integrated into 2024.09 Scandium.
Regards, Robert[*] [*] looking forward to all the Java 21 goodies we will be allowed to use :) -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Links: You receive all messages sent to this group.
