The first few releases of Java 1.7 had some things that broke a few things badly. I believe those have all been corrected by now. I've been using Oracle Java 1.7.0 64-bit JVM for a while (6 months?) in development and I have had no problems at all. We have a non-Tomcat server (Mule ESB) running on OpenJDK 1.7 in another development environment and that seems to be very stable as well. As always, test everything. I dunno how others do it, but I generally run with a new major version of Java in my own, personal development environment for about 6 months before we put it into our general development environments. Then we run in development for a few test/release cycles before we push it out to demo/production. We do the same thing with Tomcat, actually. We're just about to go into production with Tomcat 7 and probably a few months later, we'll upgrade to Java 1.7 as well. Just in time for Tomcat 8. ;) Hope that helps, - -chris -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG/MacGPG2 v2.0.17 (Darwin) Comment: GPGTools - http://gpgtools.org Comment: Using GnuPG with undefined - http://www.enigmail.net/ iEYEAREIAAYFAlDBI5QACgkQ9CaO5/Lv0PBm3gCdHfkFwTvsVCioEdxobqWTMApo rl4AnAnxRqaqP1UsBq/uJTZaaHaSrH0q =pVuF -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
