Brent N Atkinson commented on CONTINUUM-2757:
---------------------------------------------
The current development version uses a more recent version of Spring and does
not suffer from this issue. However, it appears that there are more issues
preventing running under Java 8:
* the version of bcel used to enhance the jpox model classes doesn't
understand the Java 8 class file format completely
* JSP compilation fails due to references to the older java.util.Map
These may be fixed by:
* Using an updated version of bcel during enhancement (bcel 6 is not released,
but com.google.code.findbugs:bcel-findbugs:6.0 worked)
* Recompiling redback under Java 7+, however this is difficult due to the
project's current status. Ultimately, there are multiple reasons for replacing
redback, including better authentication support.
> Not Java8 compliant
