When we compile our classes with java 20 compliance, deployment fails an we get a bunch of errors saying "Unsupported class file major version 64".

When we lower the compliance to java 19 eclsipelink works fine but whe still see errors during deployment, for example :
[EL Warning]: metadata: 2023-06-13 09:31:36.926--ServerSession(732157093)--The javax.swing.event.ChangeListener class was compiled with an unsupported JDK. Report this error to the EclipseLink open source project.
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Unsupported class file major version 64

I did not test Eclipselink 4 yet because there ist still this eror pending in Jaxb concerning @XMLId and Inheritance so we can't use it anyway.

Do you plan to bring on a version of eclipselink 3 that supprts java 20? If not we will be in big trouble

Hello,

I don't think, that EclipseLink 3.x line is ready for JDK 20.
Maybe You should try latest 4.0.2-RC1 .
https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/org/eclipse/persistence/eclipselink/4.0.2-RC1/

About:

Do You mean, that something about @XMLId was fixed in 3.x but not in 4.x? Or it's related with JAXB dependency (in 4.0.2-RC1 is JAXB 4.0.3)?

In Eclipselink 4 there is a problem when an instance of a class is referenced by XMLIdRef and th XMLID-Propoperty is defined in a superclass. I posted this in the other post i mentioned.

I can't say wheter this has been fixed in v3 and was forgotten in v4 or if this is a regression.

I'll giv 4.0.2 a try and report
