# Summary [NIFI-11717](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-11717) Updates the minimum required Java version to 17.0.6. Requiring Java 17 includes setting the minimum version for the Maven Enforcer Plugin, setting the Maven Compiler Plugin release version to 17, and removing Java 11 workflows from GitHub Actions. Additional changes include changing `yield` to `this.yield` since `yield` is now a reserved keyword in Java 17. The Groovy Eclipse Compiler plugin must be version 3.9.0, which is not available in Maven Central, requiring the Plugin Repository reference to JFrog. Making Java 17 the minimum required version for the upcoming NiFi 2.0.0 major release aligns with the [developer list discussion](https://lists.apache.org/thread/3d30xdntkfwc1lckn0qf1bkzkzdlv9w3) highlighting the Long-Term Support policy of Java 17 in contrast to the impending end of premier support for Java 11 in September 2023. # Tracking Please complete the following tracking steps prior to pull request creation. ### Issue Tracking - [X] [Apache NiFi Jira](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI) issue created ### Pull Request Tracking - [X] Pull Request title starts with Apache NiFi Jira issue number, such as `NIFI-00000` - [X] Pull Request commit message starts with Apache NiFi Jira issue number, as such `NIFI-00000` ### Pull Request Formatting - [X] Pull Request based on current revision of the `main` branch - [X] Pull Request refers to a feature branch with one commit containing changes # Verification Please indicate the verification steps performed prior to pull request creation. ### Build - [X] Build completed using `mvn clean install -P contrib-check` - [X] JDK 17 ### Licensing - [ ] New dependencies are compatible with the [Apache License 2.0](https://apache.org/licenses/LICENSE-2.0) according to the [License Policy](https://www.apache.org/legal/resolved.html) - [ ] New dependencies are documented in applicable `LICENSE` and `NOTICE` files ### Documentation - [ ] Documentation formatting appears as expected in rendered files -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
