Re: [cdt-dev] Java 9, 10 compatibility?

[Marc-André Laperle <marc-andre.laperle@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

FYI, since the webmasters installed the new Javas, I changed the job to Java 10

https://ci.eclipse.org/cdt/view/all/job/cdt-master-java10/

And added a new one for Java 11 (Early access):

Great, thanks. Future Java compatibility seems to be on the mind this week: https://jaxenter.com/jenkins-java-10-online-hackathon-145745.html

Thanks for the info! I think it makes sense to more officially support the LTS and other ones as best effort.

I created a Java 9 job for now, since Java 10 and 11 are not installed yet [1]:

I did see a low hanging fruit for Qt tests and made a patch:

My current plans at QNX is to stay on Java 8 for now. We’d probably go LTS to LTS.

 

Ideally, now that we have board approval, the Eclipse C/C++ IDE ships with a JRE and we would switch to that one. Waiting to see if that happens though.

 

But it would never hurt adding jobs to test against them to catch issues early.

 

Thanks, M-A!

Hi,

I was wondering what was the plan or your thoughts on supporting running CDT with Java 9 and 10? Since Java 8 is going (sort of) EoL January 2019 [1], it might be worthwhile to start thinking about it testing CDT with the more recent Javas in preparation for Java 11 (LTS).

I was thinking as a start to create Jenkins jobs that runs against Java 10 and 11 so that at least the issues will start showing up. Any thoughts on this subject? Or is everyone expected to run Java 8 for the foreseeable future?

 

Cheers,

Marc-André
