Hi Aki For 2.14.0 currently there's an ongoing attempt to suppor JDK 8 https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CAMEL-7314
And looking back into the Camel releases in the past, each given release *typically* does support 2 JDKs so that when 2.14.0 is out then we would support both JDK 7 and 8 and can drop supporting JDK 6 as the release notes says this: http://camel.apache.org/camel-2140-release.html#Camel2.14.0Release-Importantchangestoconsiderwhenupgrading I guess what still needs to be done as well is to tweak the maven-compiler-plugin settings on master for source/target (1.6 => 1.7) Regarding the build failures you mentioned, there was an old attempt to stabilize it https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/INFRA-6218 Babak Aki Yoshida-3 wrote > 2014-06-13 12:43 GMT+02:00 Babak Vahdat < > babak.vahdat@ > >: >> >> >> Am 13.06.14 12:23 schrieb "Aki Yoshida" unter < > elakito@ > >: >> >>>I noticed the full test has been red for some time at camel-barcode. >>> >>>Today, I noticed that this test is using mvn:com.google.zxing/core/3.0.0 >>>and this core-3.0.0.jar was built with jdk 7 >>> >>>so it can't be used with the current jdk6 camel build. >> >> I guess the JDK6 support is dropped by the upcoming 2.14.0 release so >> that >> we should be fine here. > > Hi, > the full test is still red. > https://builds.apache.org/view/A-D/view/Camel/job/Camel.trunk.fulltest/ > > and the full test with jdk7 is disabled and hasn't run for almost 6 > months. > https://builds.apache.org/view/A-D/view/Camel/job/Camel.trunk.fulltest.java7/ > > Something needs to be done here. > > I am not sure about Babak's statement about 2.14 dropping JDK6 > support.
