Hi Ivan, thanks for the feedback.

Yeah, I was thinking of removing that or move it to a maven profile that is activated when the project builds on JDK7 only (that can be done now).

So far the only objection I have received about moving to JDK8 is from the Fabric8 team asking that this should be done in Forge 3: https://twitter.com/davsclaus/status/651632079566950400?s=09

Best Regards,

The problem with Java 9 is that you can't run tests, because the JVM that runs them won't start. If you want to run with Java 9, you have to either run the build with -DskipTests or remove this from pom.xml.

Make sense remove it from the pom if we go to Java 8. :)
Can you share your problem with Java 9? (even though we don't have a final version of Java 9 ATM)

Hi Geroge,

That's wonderful! Finally we can rewrite all those anonymous inner classes with lambdas. And use streams. And sometimes Optional in the APIs :)

Do you plan to remove this from the root pom:
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-surefire-plugin</artifactId>
<configuration>
<argLine>-Xms256m -Xmx512m -XX:MaxPermSize=160m</argLine>
</configuration>
</plugin>

It doesn't make sense anymore. But has been bugging me all the time when I try to build Forge with Java 9 (it's an error there).

Cheers,
Ivan

I agree with that! :)

+1 for Java 8.

Hello Forge users,

For the next minor release, I'd like to make JDK8 the minimum requirement.

The JBoss Tools team is already using JDK8 as the minimum requirement for their new versions. We are already running our build in JDK8 (with sources set to 1.7 still)

Is there any objection? Say it now or forever hold your peace, because the Forge train never stops ;)

Best Regards, love you all!
