Hello,
What do you think of moving next major JMeter release 3.1 or 4 to Java 8,
not the next bugfix release.
+1 for me as :
- lot of libraries are dropping Java7 compat
- lambda, streams,nio2
Java 7 is EOL since April 2015 (
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/eol-135779.html)
Oracle jdk 7 is eol. There is still openjdk. I don't think that has
reached eol yet.
I think we should wait a bit longer before dropping java 7 support, or
maybe take milamber's approach of supporting two branches.
