Hi,
The proposed 7.0.83 release is:
[ ] Broken - do not release
[ X ] Stable - go ahead and release as 7.0.83 Stable
Unit test passed on JDK6
Examples: ok
Our test web application runs fine.
One thing that I want to confirm is:
I use Java 9 to build the source code, however it failed with the following
message:
build:
[javac] Compiling 32 source files to
/Users/huxing/work/apache-tomcat/tomcat7/trunk/output/jdbc-pool/classes
[javac] warning: [options] bootstrap class path not set in conjunction with
-source 1.5
[javac] error: Source option 1.5 is no longer supported. Use 1.6 or later.
[javac] error: Target option 1.5 is no longer supported. Use 1.6 or later.
BUILD FAILED
/Users/huxing/work/apache-tomcat/tomcat7/trunk/build.xml:1077: The following
error occurred while executing this line:
/Users/huxing/work/apache-tomcat/tomcat7/trunk/modules/jdbc-pool/build.xml:153:
Compile failed; see the compiler error output for details.
I've checked the modules/jdbc-pool/build.properties.default, the default
compile source/target level is 1.5.
Changing compile source/target to 1.6 will solve this issue.
However, the compile source/target of jdbc-pool conforms to the minimal Java
version tomcat requires in tomcat 8 (1.7), tomcat 8.5 (1.7), and tomcat 9(1.8).
Therefore I think it might be a bug of tomcat 7.
