Aaron,
there is, as far as I know, no list of supported development platforms.
I use Debian sid amd64 with OpenJDK 8u141, I know that others use
Ubuntu, which is probably most popular, and I expect all Debian
downstreams to work. I expect that Fedora, CentOS, and relatives will
work. I think we have a couple of MacOS developers (but I will let them
speak for themselves). The last few Windows developers stopped
contributing bug fixes for the Windows build and have not been seen for
a while; this is how the Windows build stopped working. Perhaps they
switched to Ubuntu? Ubuntu is popular for cloud deployments (Amazon and
Google Compute).
Oracle JDK 8 and OpenJDK 8 are both supported.
Kind regards,
Ben.

Ha! Windows.
I thought I was doing this the hard way. For example, GeoServer for
windows needs a 32 bit JRE, but you need the 64 bit to set up
Eclipse. And Java_Home needs to be set to the 32 bit JRE for
GeoServer, but the 64 bit JDK for Maven. Also, as I mentioned, even
with skipping the unit tests, Eclipse still showed a bunch of errors
and wouldn't actually start up.
So this explains a lot. I'm surprised that I missed it in the
documentation.
Is there a list of supported Dev platforms? I code on a Mac, but
usually in Windows within Parallels. I also have a Debian VM available.
Thanks, Ben.
Aaron

Aaron,
unit tests are not expected to fail on supported development platforms
(i.e. not Windows). We have had reports of failures on Windows but no
Windows developers to investigate them. What is your development
platform?
Kind regards,
Ben.

I did also notice that the unit tests fail when building with Maven.
I disabled them and it builds, but is that expected?
