[jbosstools-issues] [JBoss JIRA] (JBIDE-21606) Consider using java 8 for EAP 6.4 by default

Consider using java 8 for EAP 6.4 by default -------------------------------------------- Key: JBIDE-21606 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-21606 Project: Tools (JBoss Tools) Issue Type: Bug Components: server Affects Versions: 4.3.1.Beta2 Reporter: Martin Malina Fix For: 4.4.0.Alpha1 Here's the problem that I just hit: I added EAP 6.4 to JBDS 9.1 using runtime detection. Then I created the html5 project from JBoss Central using the EAP 6.4 server as target runtime. Then on the project, I just Run -> Run on Server. The server started, but deployment failed on Unsupported version: 51.0 Which is a bit strange, because the server was running with java 6. But anyhow. It seems the quictstart requires java 1.8 now. But default, EAP 6 will be set up to use java 6. So ideally EAP 6.4 would use java 8 if present. But I know we discussed similar things in the past and there didn't seem to be any way to make something like this happen. But I just wanted to present this use case and perhaps there is some possibility?
