Sandro Martini created PIVOT-895:
------------------------------------

             Summary: Update requirements to Java 7
                 Key: PIVOT-895
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIVOT-895
             Project: Pivot
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Sandro Martini
            Assignee: Sandro Martini
             Fix For: 2.1


Now that Java 6 is going in Out-of-Life (and support without paying for it) 
it's time to update dependencies and require Java 7 as a minimum version to 
build and run Pivot Applications.
Of course maintenance branch 2.0.x will stay with Java 6 as requirements.

And then, verify if disable (not delete for now) existing jobs on Jenkins that 
builds the trunk with Java 6 ... anyway they could be useful to see if we have 
some incompatibility with Java 6.


Then, we can even remove few little tricks due to bugs (not fixed) in Java 6.
