> > So when will the VSCode extension switch to JDK 11? > > Why is VSCode tied to JDK 11? I can understand some of the concerns about the platform modules, but for the IDE I don't seen an argument. At least I would not think twice about creating a new JDK11 only module. This is in `java/maven.indexer` right now and only substitutes the class name query maven-indexer can't provide anymore. VSCode Extension is probably using this modules for maven support I suppose. As long the extension wants to run on 8, we can't bump the language level on this module. However, as previously mentioned, we can't delay that forever for reasons other than HTTPClient (there are enough JDK 8 replacements for it, even though its yet another extra step, is is really no big deal to swap this out). Since this is a prototype to test things out, I didn't bother to add another dependency, I simply used JDK 11 HTTPClient. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
