For master (targeting 2.17), I see we’re still setup for Java7. Would it make sense to move to requiring Java8? We can certainly start taking advantage of the new things in Java8, but there are also dependencies (like Jetty) that now require Java8 and more and more of them will be requiring that. (example: CXF 3.2 will be Java8 only as well)
It sometimes makes back merging fixes to 2.16/2.15 tricky if you use Java8 features, but that’s going to be a problem eventually anyway. Thoughts? -- Daniel Kulp dk...@apache.org - http://dankulp.com/blog Talend Community Coder - http://coders.talend.com
