------------------------------------
Summary: Deprecate support for Java 5 and CDC
Key: DERBY-6213
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-6213
Project: Derby
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Build tools, Documentation, Javadoc
Affects Versions: 10.11.0.0
Reporter: Rick Hillegas
The developer community has approved the proposal to sunset support for Java 5
and CDC:
http://apache-database.10148.n7.nabble.com/VOTE-Sunsetting-support-for-Java-5-and-CDC-td129832.html#a129925
This issue tracks a number of tasks needed to implement this proposal:
I) Remove build support for Java 5 and CDC.
II) Purge user doc references to Java 5, CDC, and the JDBC 4 DataSources.
III) Remove the JDBC 4 version of the public api from the published javadoc.
The recently introduced CP2 DataSources would need to migrate to the JDBC 3
version of the published javadoc. The JDBC 4 versions of the DataSources would
still exist, but they would be vacuous extensions of their JDBC 3 counterparts.
IV) On the wiki, document our expectation that maintenance releases will
support the same platforms as the original feature release cut from their
branch.
