Should Java 11 be supported as a compile target? I can compile the
current master branch using Java 11 and run the result on Java 11. But
the target when it compiles is set to java 8. I have some mailet code
where I'd like to take advantage of some new classes and methods that
are introduced in Java 11. But the mailets have to be java 8 target as
well or james won't start. I'm compiling for my own use on java 11. So
I don't need to support older versions with my builds.
I tried changing the target in pom.xml from 8 to 11 and got a compile
error that it can't find javax.annotation.PreDestroy which is apparently
removed after java 8.
If this is a quick fix to make it compile with java 11 target, and you
don't think it will hurt anything else, I'll see if I can find
alternatives so I can compile with java 11 target.
If the solution is not trivial, do you have an estimate as to when JAMES
will fully support a java 11 compile?
Thx.
Jerry
