[krazo-dev] Future of Krazo Nashorn extension

Hi all,

today I had time to check the Jenkins builds an found a few issues. One of them is the extension running on the Nashorn engine. The engine was removed from the JDK in Java 15. now our tests are failing on JDK 17 and the extension is not able to run anymore.

Now I‘d like to discuss how to proceed with this problem.

IMHO the easiest way for us is to remove the extension in Krazo 3.0.0, so we don‘t have the problem to maintain some code building on obsolete APIs.
 
Another idea could be to add the engine as a external dependency if it‘s available as single archive. This won‘t break existing applications if there are any existing.

Personally, I‘d prefer the first idea, as I‘ve never seen any application relying on Nashorn and I don‘t think the extension has a future after the removal from the JDK.

What do you think about this? I already created a GitHub issue for this too, so please feel free to add your comments there.

Best regards,

Tobias
