Emmanuel Lecharny commented on DIRSERVER-2180:
----------------------------------------------

Ok, there is one problem : the {jbcrypt} library has been compiled with Java 8. 
That means the API must be executed using Java 8 :

{noformat}
Manifest-Version: 1.0
Bnd-LastModified: 1452409497971
Build-Jdk: 1.8.0_66
...
{noformat}

Note that the original library (mindrot) is also built with Java 8 :

{noformat}
Manifest-Version: 1.0
Archiver-Version: Plexus Archiver
Built-By: zachthomas
Created-By: Apache Maven 3.3.9
Build-Jdk: 1.8.0_121
...
{noformat}

If we are to keep Java 7 as a minimum requirement, we need to recompile the 
library. Or we need to stop supporting Java 7...

> At the moment, Apache DS does not support the BCrypt password hashing 
> algorithm.
> As discussed on the dev mailinglist, I'd like to contribute support for this 
> algorithm and am opening this ticket as requested by [~elecharny]. An 
> incomplete prototype (at least OSGi tests are currently broken) is available 
> at [1].
