Hi,
There is something I did not speak about, the new "this-escape" warning.
Here is a good and simple explanation about it:
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/77191858/what-is-a-this-escape-warning-and-how-do-i-deal-with-it#77191859
OFBiz contains 97 such possible issues. To hide them, for the moment in build. gradle I put in “options.compilerArgs << '-Xlint:-this-escape'” into
_« tasks_._withType_(_JavaCompile »_
As this can allow the compiler to do anything it wants: <<In the C programming community, undefined behavior may be humorously referred to as "nasal
demons", after a comp.std.c post that explained undefined behavior as allowing the compiler to do anything it chooses, even "to make demons fly out of
your nose">> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Undefined_behavior
We need to verify when it's really an issue and then fix it.
Most of the work remains and even the fix should be backported to the release
branch. That's also why we should not wait.

Hi,
About CI, it's possible to build trunk on GH actions by changing gradle.yaml
from JDK 17 to 21.
Then also BB should be changed the same.
After a 1st glane I'm still unsure about demos that now use Docker.
I see no Java version reference in docker-image.yaml. IIRR it uses the jar
build by gradle.yaml.
The VM still uses JDK 11 by default. Only JDK 17 is also installed
Looking for "17" in source we get 22 774 occurrences.
A lot are unrelated, but still 1110 for " 17" (" 17 " only 1 unrelated).
Apart changes in https://github.com/apache/ofbiz-framework/pull/917/files for "
17" in source we have also:
devcontainer.json related to https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-13151
INSTALL
README.adoc
dependencies.gradle
I did not look into the 1110 others that are into applications, framework,
themes and plugins (with also patches I have locally) code.
Conclusion, it seems easy to decide to go with JDK 21 for trunk.

Hello all. As pointed out by Eugen [1], a question rises from the subjet of
Java21 update:
Of 'source' and 'target' java versions, wich one(s) should be updated ?
I for myself don't have a strong opinion on the matter.
Regards
Gaetan.

Hi Nicolas,
That's a good idea. Another would be to upgrade Gradle, because for instance of

I will open an issue and try to move forward on it ? :)
At this time only OFBiz test doesn't on 21 works.
