If libjvm.dylib gets a different value, then that would be a bug, but note that this could also vary depending on how the build is configured and the compiler version used. So far, I have only bumped this version once, and that was because the toolchain required it when switching to Clang from GCC. Keeping it low is nice for backwards compatibility. That said, I don't see a problem with increasing this value to 10.10 if it's needed for something. Even 10.10 was EOL a long time ago now. The current value is set in make/autoconf/flags.m4. The discrepancy in Info.plist was fixed in JDK-8252145. ------------- PR: https://git.openjdk.java.net/jdk/pull/1569
