Just so you know, there is a bug currently in JDT that causes compilation errors if compiling against Java 7 or less but using a JRE 8. https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=390889#c15 Not sure how important it is for us. Since Fedora 21 will most likely ship Java 8 by default, it's highly possible that Eclipse and JBoss Developer Studio users on Fedora get highly annoyed by this issue.

For Eclipse Luna there is an integration build released with Java8 support: http://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/downloads/drops4/I20140318-0830/ - Eclipse 4.4.0 Integration Build: I20140318-0830 WTP is also going to release their integration build with Java8 support (but it's not declared yet, and as such it's not available at download.eclipse.org yet): http://build.eclipse.org/webtools/committers/wtp4x-R3.6.0-I/2014032708533... Probably we should try these builds (upon the WTP one is declared). /Victor On 03/26/2014 04:16 PM, Max Rydahl Andersen wrote: > On 26 Mar 2014, at 11:01, Mickael Istria wrote: > >> Just so you know, there is a bug currently in JDT that causes >> compilation errors if compiling against Java 7 or less but using a JRE >> 8. >> https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=390889#c15 >> >> Not sure how important it is for us.
