Very probably, since I think the Oracle JDK 32 bit binaries are still built on
XP SP3.
But no one tests on XP any more, so I couldn't say for certain.
But I'd expect that to change to "definitely not" early in JDK 9,
since once we move to newer VS compilers they'll not be able to
create binaries that run on XP. VS2010 (which we use now) is
the last to support that.
So OpenJDK on windows should stay using VS2010 because WP is my everyday
platform

10.8 will be the lowest officially supported.

Looking at the early access version of java 8 it says:

I understand why it is not supported, but is there any technical reason why
it will not work. Unlike Java for OSX Ive never had any significant problems
with Java on different Windows platforms, I need to move to Java 8 for my OSX
customers of my desktop application because of some bugs in Java 7 for OSX,
and I would prefer to use Java 8 for all platforms. But Im sure I have a few
Windows Xp customers remaining so I don't want to break things for them as
I'm not currently using any Java 8 functionality.
BTW is Java 8 for OSX supported for OSX 10.7.5 onwards like Java 7 ?
