------------------------------------
Summary: Update "trunk" to require Java 8
Key: PIVOT-998
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIVOT-998
Project: Pivot
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: all
Affects Versions: 2.1
Environment: All
Reporter: Roger Whitcomb
Assignee: Roger Whitcomb
Since "trunk" is unreleased as of yet, and Java 8 is quite mature, and Java 9
is due out later this year, and there are features of Java 8 (such as lambdas)
that we would like to take advantage of for new development, it seems wise to
require Java 8 going forward for the "trunk", while leaving the 2.0.x
maintenance branch at Java 6. Previously we had upgraded to requiring Java 7
for "trunk", but that version is stabilized and no longer being updated...
