Re: [eclipselink-dev] Should we update current master to JDK 8 ?
|
Hi,
since I haven't heard any objections, I plan to switch our
master/2.7 to JDK 8 tomorrow. The patch I'm going to apply is attached
in https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=464795
Thanks,

Hi,
with increasing adoption of JDK 8 it is becoming harder to provide
support for new features/APIs there while still keeping JDK 7
compatibility [1].
Therefore I'd like to switch our current master/2.7 to JDK 8 and have:
EclipseLink 2.5.x targeting users on JDK 6+
EclipseLink 2.6.x targeting users on JDK 7+
EclipseLink 2.7.x targeting users on JDK 8+
Does anyone have a strong reason to NOT do the switch to JDK 8 on
master/2.7?
Thanks,

[1]: see ie https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=446236 which
will be easy to fix on JDK 8 but is not feasible to fix while keeping
JDK 7 compliance
