[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] (WFLY-11353) Classes for newer versions are not loaded from Multi-Release-JARs in WARs

[Daniel Schwering (Jira)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/WFLY-11353?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13678621#comment-13678621 ] 

Daniel Schwering commented on WFLY-11353:
-----------------------------------------

[~jaikiran], those settings had no visible effect; the MR-Jar is still not loaded correctly.
[~brian.stansberry], installing a module is not going to be a solution, as it complicates the deployment process. But it may work, if the modules are loaded via the standard JRE classloader.

> Since Java 9 there are Multi-Release JARs ([MRJARS|https://openjdk.java.net/jeps/238]) that allow different classes for different Java versions to be included in one JAR file. I was surprised when a Wildfly 14 running on Java 11 executed Java-8-code in a JAR included in a WAR although the JAR was a MRJAR with code for Java 11. That JAR included as a dependency for a regular Java SE project is running different code depending on the running JRE, but when included in a WAR, the Java-11-code seems to be ignored.
> Is that expected behavior for a webserver, as Java EE 8 does not explicitly require Java 9 (which introduced MRJARs) but only Java 8?
