[sapphire-dev] FindBugs scan fails on Java 8

["Konstantin Komissarchik" <konstantin.komissarchik@xxxxxxxxxx>]

I tried to get Sapphire Hudson jobs to use Java 8, but discovered that the latest release of FindBugs does not yet support Java 8 bytecode.

 

https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=432461

 

Hudson will continue to use Java 6 until the next FindBugs release (date unknown). You can still use Java 8 for local builds, but you need to avoid running FindBugs.

 

“ant clean-start” – does not run FindBugs to start with

“ant clean build build-alt-configurations run-tests” – essentially what Hudson runs, but without FindBugs

 

Let me know if there are any questions.

 

Thanks,
