Gary Gregory commented on LANG-1389: ------------------------------------ I think that is a Java 9 class... I do not think that we want to depend on Java 9 yet. That and MR Jars break all sorts of tools. > Deprecate JavaVersion in favor of java.lang.Runtime.Version > ----------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: LANG-1389 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LANG-1389 > Project: Commons Lang > Issue Type: Task > Components: lang.* > Affects Versions: 3.7 > Reporter: Michael Osipov > Priority: Major > > With the rapid release cycle of Java {{JavaVersion}} does not really work > anymore. We at Maven have constant issues with our subprojects for missing > Java version in {{JavaVersion}} enum. To solve this problem, Commons Lang > must be release at least every six months and we have re-release all affected > components. Since this does not scale, I would recommend to deprecate this > enum in favor of {{java.lang.Runtime.Version}} or have a better non-enum > approach to it. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
