We have not decided on a Java minimum version for GWT code with 3.0. Maybe we go with an approach to leave server side code at Java 6 and may require a newer version for the client side. This would allow us to leverage Java 8 features while still being able to run Java 6 server side. On Nov 13, 2013 5:18 AM, "Thomas Broyer" <[email protected]> wrote:
