For this sort of thing, it's also worth reporting if there aren't any problems too. -----Original Message----- From: Rahkonen Jukka (MML) [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Thursday, January 29, 2015 2:49 PM To: Michael Ferrante; [email protected] Subject: Re: [Geoserver-devel] GeoServer support for Java 8, Java 7 end of life April 2015? Hi, GeoServer is probably already functioning under Java 8. It does not build yet with jre 8 but you can run binaries which are compiled with jre 7 with jre 8. Running Geoserver with jre 8 is not thoroughly tested but I haven't seen any reports about malfunctions in the mailing list. I have made some quick tests without problems and I am sure that others have done the same. I recommend you to make your own tests and report here if you find any issues. -Jukka Rahkonen- Michael Ferrante wrote: > It seems like Oracle is stepping up the pace of Java upgrades.
