Re: [jakartaee-platform-dev] [glassfish-dev] JakartaEE 9.1
|
Just to clarify the
minutes from our last Platform Call... The question was raised whether
Glassfish 6 could support both Java SE 8 and Java SE 11. Although
it may be desirable for Compatible Implementations to support both Java
runtimes with a single version of the product, it is not a requirement.
So, if a new version of Glassfish (6.1 or 7.0) is required to certify
with Java SE 11, that is just fine.

I
would say as the minimum Java 11 sounds OK but if Glassfish could only
be built with Java 11 and not 12-15 as well (optionally with 11 as the
minimum) then a couple of nasty JDK bugs that make the use of modules or
multi-release-JARs (especially in combination) impossible prior to Java
14 (see https://stackoverflow.com/questions/53581799/jdeps-command-use-with-multi-release-option-failed)
would plague it until the upper JDK version is increased to something reasonable.
Also
once you are past Java 11 the others are usually not that difficult because
11 removed all the XML and SOA stuff that is now in Jakarta EE anyway.

Werner

Then
only supporting of JDK11 is very reasonable for GF 6.1. I think there is
no need to support JDK8.

Hi,
GF6
(EE 9) will stay on JDK 8, but GF6.1 (EE 9.1) will move to at least JDK
11. The entire purpose of EE 9.1 is to introduce JDK 11 support, so there
should be at least one implementation that validates that. Of course we
could call it GF 7 if that's more appropriate.
Kind

Hi
I
am not in favor of supporting both JDK 8 and JDK 11.
Especially,
most of the users are not ready for moving to JDK11. Therefore, I prefer
to support only JDK8 for GF6.
But
for the following major releases, it is perfectly reasonable to support
only JDK11 and above.

I
just read the minutes here Jakarta
EE Platform Call (eclipse-ee4j.github.io)and in particular the comment “Verify with the GlassFish team if GF will
be able to certify on both Java SE 8 and Java SE 11”
From
my perspective as project lead for GlassFish I would rather NOT support
certifying on both JDK 8 and JDK 11. I’ve CC’d in the glassfish-dev list
in case anybody there wants to chime in.
