Update JDK version to 1.8

hgeraldino opened this issue 4 years ago · 1 comments

Is it possible to have the JDK version updated to at least 1.8 (or, preferably, use Java 11) on the cdb2jdbc project?

JDK 1.6 is not just really old, but is no longer supported by Oracle (or any other JVM vendor).

We do not specify a JDK version. You are free to use JDK 8 or 11 to build the driver. In the POM file, we do tell javac that -source and -target are 1.6, to support at least JRE 1.6. The driver works fine in any 1.6+ JREs.
