My +1 for Java 8 (as I have been advocating for this for 2.0 already) About system that don't have Java 8 in official repo (RHEL5, Debian Wheezy, Ubuntu 14.04 LTS). Oracle do provide official JDK builds as DEB/RPM, so I can't see this as a blocker. For sure there's IT department, one need to convince to install a runtime that isn't part of official system repository... but that's just organisational issue we can't fix.
About maven job type, I wonder we could add better support for toolchain so jenkins can aytomagically select/install adequate JDK on slave, create toolchain.xml, and maybe even inject maven-toolchains-plugin in the lifecycle (is this possible ?). Maybe too much black magic ? Any improvement here would help getting a smooth transition. 2016-10-13 23:22 GMT+02:00 Daniel Beck <[email protected]>: > > > On 13.10.2016, at 22:22, Baptiste Mathus <[email protected]> wrote: > > > >> On the wiki page of the plugin ? > > > > > > Yes, I think this is probably the most sensible place. > > I agree.
