<br>
I rebased my local Keycloak source codes to latest master yesterday, and<br>
got compilation error in<br>
org.keycloak.models.sessions.infinispan.InfinispanUserSessionProvider<br>
class, because of import of classes from java.util.function package.<br>
Investigation shown me that these classes are available in Java 8+ only.<br>
<br>
Does this mean that next version of Keycloak (1.8) is targeted to run on<br>
Java 8 only?<br>
<br>
Is this documented somewhere? Main readme at<br>
<a href="https://github.com/keycloak/keycloak" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://github.com/keycloak/keycloak</a> still states "Ensure you have JDK 7<br>
(or newer)" in build section. And I was not able to find any other info<br>
about required java version in user doc (eg Installation chapter).<br>
<br>
And I also realized that Keycloak's parent pom file (and all subprojet<br>
poms also) miss any information about target java version.<br>
There was this definition in pom file a year ago, but looks like Stian<br>
removed it 9 months ago:<br>
<br>
<!-- maven-compiler-plugin --><br>
<br>
<maven.compiler.target>1.7</maven.compiler.target><br>
<br>
<maven.compiler.source>1.7</maven.compiler.source><br>
<br>
This brings a small problem when importing the project into Eclipse, as<br>
it is not able to correctly set java version for the project.<br>
But maybe there is some reason why this is not in the pom? (I can<br>
imagine that adapters use lower java version than the Keycloak server)<br>
<br>
Is it possible to clear this somehow, at least in the documentation?<br>
<br>
Thanks<br>
