Hi all,
Just thinking out loud: what about we start using JDK8+ for all the test code in
Infinispan?
The production code would still have language level 6/7 (whatever is required…).
This way we start getting ourselves familiar with JDK8 in a safe environment and we
reduce some of the boiler plate code currently existing in the tests.
This would only problematic for anyone consuming our test jars. They’d need move up to
JDK8+ along with us.
Another potential problem, as rightly pointed out by Will on IRC, is that it would also
cause issues for anyone trying to run our testsuite with JDK7 or earlier, if anyone is
doing such a thing.
Thoughts?
p.s. Recently I found
https://leanpub.com/whatsnewinjava8/read which provides a great
overview on what’s new in JDK8 along with small code samples.
