With a release every 6 years, we could indeed adopt a more recent Java version :) I could vote +1 to such a move, if all tests pass and stable blocks have been reported to work as before.

Should we ask to users@ ?

Minimum Java version is now 1.6.
That's the version needed for POI 3.14.
It also solves a (mainly academic) issue in the XSP block.

Still the question whether we shouldn't go straight to 1.8.
It's frustrating to develop and then fail the build on Jenkins.
I doubt that anyone bothering to upgrade Cocoon wouldn't want to go to a more 
recent JDK.

Cheers, Alfred.

I'm a bit lost here :)

After your recent commits, what is now the minimum Java version : 1.5,
1.6, 1.8 ?

Thanks, it was quite a long shot to develop on Java 8 and then Jenkins on 1.5.

FYI I have just updated the job to run with JDK 1.6 (it used to be 1.5).

Now it seems to be back working, cool!

Regards.

Yes, that's me although I don't know this error came into being.
Must be a time bomb set off by a deeper recompile.
I'll put in a fix.

Cheers, Alfred.

Hi guys,
glad to see some activity raising again in the old roots for 2_1_X;
please take care of what Jenkins says about that:

https://builds.apache.org/view/A-D/view/Cocoon/job/Cocoon%202.1.X/

Recent builds seem to fail due to error

I have also re-enabled notifications to c...@cocoon.apache.org, hope it's
working now.
