Dan Haywood commented on ISIS-568:
----------------------------------

It turns out this isn't going to be that easy to do.

JDK 7 has a stricter verifier which ASM 3.x falls foul of.  This can be 
disabled with a compile flag, but that's a bit of a headache for Isis users.

ASM 3.x is used by cglib 2.x.

cglib 2.x is used by (a) our wrapper factory, (b) our isis-core-cglib-bytecode 
(nb: not required for JDO), and (c) for JMock (jmock-legacy, mocking out 
classes).

Of these, the last is probably the biggest headache.  We could either move away 
from JMock (see ISIS-569), or we could contribute back to JMock and help get 
that working with cglib 3.x.



> Drop support for JDK 1.6, standardize on JDK 1.7.
