Re: [keycloak-dev] Is keycloak Java 8 only now? Where is it documented?

Java 8 is now required to build due to switch to WildFly 10. The target Java version is inherited from JBoss parent (https://github.com/jboss/jboss-parent-pom/blob/master/pom.xml#L132). Next release (1.8) will require Java 8 on server-side, but still support Java 7 on the client-side. Oracle stopped supporting Java 7 early last year, so maybe it's time to move on ;) I'll update the readme's though.

Investigation shown me that these classes are available in Java 8+ only. Does this mean that next version of Keycloak (1.8) is targeted to run on Java 8 only? Is this documented somewhere? Main readme at https://github.com/keycloak/keycloak still states "Ensure you have JDK 7 (or newer)" in build section. And I was not able to find any other info about required java version in user doc (eg Installation chapter). And I also realized that Keycloak's parent pom file (and all subprojet poms also) miss any information about target java version. There was this definition in pom file a year ago, but looks like Stian removed it 9 months ago: <!-- maven-compiler-plugin --> <maven.compiler.target>1.7</maven.compiler.target> <maven.compiler.source>1.7</maven.compiler.source> This brings a small problem when importing the project into Eclipse, as it is not able to correctly set java version for the project. But maybe there is some reason why this is not in the pom? (I can imagine that adapters use lower java version than the Keycloak server) Is it possible to clear this somehow, at least in the documentation?
