For starters, the BCEL tool used by JiBX is incompatible with Java 8. It
looks like there's been some work to address this, but there's no new
release of BCEL and no indication when there might be.
My preferred approach to solve this would be to replace BCEL with the
more-modern and better maintained ASM library, but that's a pretty
substantial change that would involve several weeks work for me. The
plus side it that in the processes of replacing BCEL I'd also clean up
some of the messiest code in JiBX - but a change of this size would
require some financial support from one or more companies using JiBX.

Any update on Java 8 support? Dennis, you had mentioned earlier in
April that you had hoped to have something by the end of the month.
Have you had good progress? We have an app we're looking to upgrade
and are trying to plan what the proper course of action might be.
