Package: openjdk-8-jdk Version: 8u181-b13-2 Severity: normal Dear all
building jars with jdk11 (as distributed by Debian) at the moment seems to create lass file version 54.0 files, but running them on Debian supplied jdk8 is not possible: $ which java /usr/bin/java $ java -version openjdk version "1.8.0_181" OpenJDK Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_181-8u181-b13-2-b13) OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.181-b13, mixed mode) $ java -jar myprog.jar Error: A JNI error has occurred, please check your installation and try again Exception in thread "main" java.lang.UnsupportedClassVersionError: javafx/event/EventTarget has been compiled by a more recent version of the Java Runtime (class file version 54.0), this version of the Java Runtime only recognizes class file versions up to 52.0 ... OTOH, if I use jdk8 from upstream: $ which java /home/norbert/Java/jdk1.8.0_192/bin/java $ java -version java version "1.8.0_192-ea" Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_192-ea-b04) Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.192-b04, mixed mode) $ java -jar myprog.jar ... There are no problems. Would it be possible to update jdk8 in Debian to support that?
