Re: [hibernate-dev] Hibernate ORM and Java 8 usage
+1 for Vlad's proposal to use the same JDK for tests and main code in
a given module.
Infinispan requires Java8 at runtime too, so that module should be the
only one to use Java8?

tests can
use it, but I also agree that this is a rather strange move.
Since we need to support Java 1.6, maybe it's a better idea to use the
latest JDK just in the modules where we have no other choice.
For testing, I think that 1.6 is just fine and I could easily change those
tests to remove the 1.8 dependency.
So I vote for using the same JDK for both main and test in a particular
module.
