Aha, this is what i was interested in.
Any chance you can try with JDK8 against current master?
Scott, can you confirm this?
>From the EE 7 platform specification:
"
EE.9.5
Requirements for All Java EE Profiles
The Java Platform, Standard Edition 7 is the required foundation
for any Java EE 7 profile.
Yes, but that doesn't say that is the only version that is required.
*EE.2.4.1 Container Requirements*
"This specification requires that containers provide a Java
Compatible™ runtime environment, as defined by the Java Platform,
Standard Edition, v7 specification (Java SE)."
Which means any Java runtime that is compatible with v7 is fine, and
as far as we know 8 is backward compatible, as it provides all v7 does
and more.
