Re: [tcf-dev] Build failed in Hudson: tcf-master #4

I don't know all details.
If code is built with 3.8, is some situations it throws class not found exception on 3.7.
It looks like the byte code references (indirectly, probably through inheritance) some classes (or interfaces) that are new in 3.8.

Hm, first time I hear about this ... why would that be ? Can you give more details ?

My understanding so far was that many projectes build against 3.8 but run on older versions.
RSE, for instance, builds against 3.7 today but can even run on 3.4 (with only minor limitations).

I assume that today we build tcf-1.0 against 3.7 and expect it to run on 3.8 and 4.2 as well ?
