[gwt-contrib] GWT 2.8.0-beta1 available for testing

2015-12-04 Thread Daniel Kurka 
Hi all,

we just finished testing for GWT 2.8.0-beta1. You can either download it 
from goo.gl/62SeR5 or from maven central.

Release notes can be found here 
.

Please start testing and let us know about any issues you encounter by 
either discussion here or filing bugs on github 
.

-Daniel

Is it intentional/necessary that gwt-servlet.jar is compiled for Java 7 and
not Java 6?

It will be very useful to make gwt-servlet compatible with java 6

Given the intricacies of code dependencies, this is not going to be easy, 
and unless someone for whom it really matters jumps in to contribute a 
patch (possibly with help from maintainers) I'm afraid it's not going to be 
addressed.
Maybe it'd be easier to run Retrolambda or something similar on the 
"extracted" JAR to produce a Java6-compatible JAR; question is whether this 
should be done in GWT or in the applications that will run in a Java 6 JRE.

gwt-servlet.jar isn't really compiled, its just assembled. The build script 
compiles gwt-dev and gwt-user using Java 7 as minimum and then 
gwt-servlet.jar is created by pulling in a subset of already compiled 
classes of gwt-user and gwt-dev. That means gwt-servlet.jar also requires 
Java 7. So generally its intentional.

Also as soon as we land Java 8 API emulations GWT will be compiled using 
Java 8 which would mean gwt-servlet.jar also requires Java 8. Its probably 
not possible to keep gwt-servlet.jar compatible to Java 7 because as soon 
as we add java.time emulation to GWT we probably also add GWT-RPC custom 
field serializers for Java 8 classes like LocalDate, etc.

As you mention, it looks like the only reason to compile with Java8 is the
custom field serializers. When that happens, those extra custom field
serializers could be supplied as a separate jar.
