Jochen Wiedmann commented on RAT-220: ------------------------------------- Maven is at 1.8, Eclipse is at 1.7. How about skipping 1.6, and going to 1.7? I think java.nio might have a lot to offer for Rat. Whiskers, and Tentacles, can follow, if they want, or not. (I think there is no reason for concerns, as none is a dependency of the others.) Jochen > JDK version 1.6 > --------------- > > Key: RAT-220 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/RAT-220 > Project: Apache Rat > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Karl Heinz Marbaise > > Currently the RAT project defines as Java compatibility 1.5 but Tentacles > defines 1.6 and Whiskers as well 1.6 so it would be a good idea to go to 1.6 > as minimum....If someone needs to work with 1.5 toolchain can be used. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
