Beginning in a few weeks, I’ll be merging the changes for Jakarta compatibility.
The first release will bring partial Jakarta compatibility. Fortress Rest will support it and will require Tomcat 10 and beyond. The Web component will not. Why? Not all of its dependencies yet have support. It can’t migrate until every library it uses is compatible. So, it will (still) require Tomcat 9 and before. If you’re just using the Core, of course you don’t care about Tomcat. Regardless, every fortress component will require Java 11 and beyond. There have already been notifications on this. I have not received any correspondence that this creates problems. So, no plans for maintaining a Java 8 compatibility stream currently. The target release date for the 3.0 release (will it be a release candidate?) is July 1st, 2023. Don’t hold me to that date. It could be later, probably not sooner. — Shawn --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
