Description

Since version v1.30.0 I get the following exception when I try to run the Structurizr CLI:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.UnsupportedClassVersionError: com/structurizr/cli/StructurizrCliApplication has been compiled by a more recent version of the Java Runtime (class file version 55.0), this version of the Java Runtime only recognizes class file versions up to 52.0

I'm running the Java 8 Update 371 runtime environment (the latest as of writing). The installation page mentions I will need Java version 11+, but I can't find a runtime environment newer than 8. Do I really need to install the JDK or is there a more recent version of the runtime I'm unaware of?

Steps to reproduce

  1. Install Java 8 Update 371
  2. Download Structurizr CLI 1.30.0
  3. Run structurizr

Active support for Java 8 ended in 2022, so you will need to upgrade your JDK/JRE to 11+.
