[jbosstools-issues] [JBoss JIRA] (JBIDE-17916) Should all jenkins jobs use the same JDK?

Should all jenkins jobs use the same JDK? ----------------------------------------- Key: JBIDE-17916 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-17916 Project: Tools (JBoss Tools) Issue Type: Enhancement Components: build Affects Versions: 4.2.0.Beta3 Reporter: Max Rydahl Andersen Fix For: 4.2.0.Beta3 while investigating for [~lhein] which java version we actually used for builds on jbosstools jenkins jobs I noticed we seem to have inconsistent usage for luna builds. The following jobs dont use Java 7, any reason for that ? job/devstudio.product_8.0.luna/config.xml:145: <jdk>java1.6</jdk> job/devstudio.versionwatch_8.0.luna/config.xml:95: <jdk>java1.6</jdk> job/jbosstools-aerogear_4.2.luna/config.xml:106: <jdk>java1.6</jdk> job/jbosstools-birt_4.2.luna/config.xml:107: <jdk>java1.6</jdk> job/jbosstools-browsersim_4.2.luna/config.xml:106: <jdk>java1.6</jdk> job/jbosstools-build-sites.aggregate.coretests-site_4.2.luna/config.xml:143: <jdk>java1.6</jdk> job/jbosstools-build-sites.aggregate.hibernatetools-site_4.2.luna/config.xml:153: <jdk>java1.6</jdk> job/jbosstools-build-sites.aggregate.site_4.2.luna/config.xml:143: <jdk>java1.6</jdk> job/jbosstools-build-sites.aggregate.webtools-site_4.2.luna/config.xml:153: <jdk>java1.6</jdk> job/jbosstools-build.parent_4.2.luna/config.xml:60: <jdk>java1.6</jdk> job/jbosstools-buildflow_4.2.luna/config.xml:19: <jdk>java1.6</jdk> job/jbosstools-centraltarget_4.2.luna/config.xml:72: <jdk>java1.6</jdk> job/jbosstools-discovery_4.2.luna/config.xml:147: <jdk>java1.6</jdk> job/jbosstools-freemarker_4.2.luna/config.xml:107: <jdk>java1.6</jdk> job/jbosstools-gwt_4.2.luna/config.xml:107: <jdk>java1.6</jdk> job/jbosstools-jst_4.2.luna/config.xml:106: <jdk>java1.6</jdk> job/jbosstools-livereload_4.2.luna/config.xml:106: <jdk>java1.6</jdk> job/jbosstools-openshift_4.2.luna/config.xml:106: <jdk>java1.6</jdk> job/jbosstools-portlet_4.2.luna/config.xml:106: <jdk>java1.6</jdk> job/jbosstools-server_4.2.luna/config.xml:133: <jdk>java1.6</jdk> job/jbosstools-vpe_4.2.luna/config.xml:106: <jdk>java1.6</jdk> and only these uses java 7: ./job/jbosstools-arquillian_4.2.luna/config.xml: <jdk>jdk1.7</jdk> ./job/jbosstools-base_4.2.luna/config.xml: <jdk>jdk1.7u02</jdk> *CHANGED TO* <jdk>jdk1.7</jdk> on 2014-07-18 16:04 EST ./job/jbosstools-central_4.2.luna/config.xml: <jdk>jdk1.7</jdk> ./job/jbosstools-forge_4.2.luna/config.xml: <jdk>jdk1.7</jdk> ./job/jbosstools-hibernate_4.2.luna/config.xml: <jdk>jdk1.7</jdk> ./job/jbosstools-javaee_4.2.luna/config.xml: <jdk>jdk1.7</jdk> ./job/jbosstools-webservices_4.2.luna/config.xml: <jdk>jdk1.7</jdk> and not all the same. and there is even one using Java 8: ./job/jbosstools-composite-install_4.2.luna/config.xml: <jdk>java1.8</jdk> that seems unnecessary.
