GitHub user mrwhy-orig added a comment to the discussion: Which is the minimal Java version plc4j should support
Yeah, I do understand this position. In my case, as I wrote in the corresponding issue someone else opened, I have to deal with an old software (Java 1.8) and I don't want to alter the PLC code directly. So I think PLC4X could be a great help for "Retrofitting" where you somekind of bound to use old hard- and software. But therefore it should use the min required version as possible, to be able to run everywhere with very little constraints. But, yeah, if it makes the life of the devs much harder it has to be considered to omit this line usecase. In my particular UC I found a way to use a newer JDK and I will try to use PLC4x, especally because I have to deal with 2 different PLCs atm (S7-300 and Beckhoff). I like the idea behind PLC4x and would love to use it more often, but I'm just a freelancer and unfortunately not always in a position where I can freely choose which tools I gonna use.
