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

Sure thing, I only want to be sure what is going on and if it is documented properly. Looks like EAP 6.4 can run on Java 8 so it shouldn't be so big problem for us.

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.
