Ekaterina Dimitrova commented on CASSANDRA-18688:
-------------------------------------------------
I think people trust me more than they should... and I should stop multitasking!
bq. However, I think we need to make Cassandra fail to start also when the
environment variable is set to false, as shown here
Shouldn't we check to see if it is not set to true? Anything else than true to
prevent us from starting? The way it is also said in the error message. We
wanted to restrict it if it is not explicitly enabled, not restrict it only if
it is explicitly requested.
> Limit Java runtime in 5.0 to JDK 11 and 17 in scripts; add a flag to opt out

> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: Task
> Components: Build
> Reporter: Ekaterina Dimitrova

> Currently, we limit our users from building with non-default Java versions in
> build.xml.
> They can easily hack build.xml for test purposes with different versions.
> Cassandra–5.0 will be run on JDK11 and JDK17, but on startup, we do not limit
> people to those two, but only to everything >= 11. We should also put an
> upper limit of 17 in our Cassandra startup scripts. We can also add a flag to
> opt-out if someone wants to test with newer versions.
