[xwiki-devs] [ANN] Move to Java 7 is now done
I updated all Jenkins agents to use Java 7 to build master branch and moved all references from Java 6 to Java 7 in xwiki-commons root pom. What it means in practice is that you might have issues building XWiki with Java 6 from now on (and will probably be impossible in not long). We don't yet used much Java 7 API but if you don't build everything on your side you will probably have issues when building a project which download on maven repository jars built with Java 7. In short: update your Maven setup to use Java 7 when working with master branch. Thanks, -- Thomas Mortagne

I wonder what happens when releasing a 5.x.y bugfix version from the usual agent... -- Sergiu Dumitriu http://purl.org/net/sergiu
It might have been a bit easier for everyone to wait till 5.4.2 is released before doing the switch since now all devs working on 5.4.2 will need to juggle between JDKs… -Vincent On 12 Feb 2014 at 19:16:45, Sergiu Dumitriu ([email protected]) wrote: On 02/12/2014 01:11 PM, Thomas Mortagne wrote:

You can work on 5.4 branch with Java 7 for most cases as long as you don't deploy with it. On Wed, Feb 12, 2014 at 7:35 PM, [email protected] <[email protected]> wrote:

Agents still have both versions, when released a 5.4.x all you need is change a link. On Wed, Feb 12, 2014 at 7:15 PM, Sergiu Dumitriu <[email protected]> wrote:
