Elliotte Rusty Harold commented on MRESOLVER-671: ------------------------------------------------- That does not seem to be the case. Maven resolver does not build on Java 21 and does not contain Java 21 in its matrix. See, for example, [https://github.com/apache/maven-resolver/pull/653] The tests ran on Java 21 and only Java 21, nothing earlier. We do need to test on earlier supported JDKs, and if that requires building with Java 8 so be it. > Don't require Java 21 > --------------------- > > Key: MRESOLVER-671 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MRESOLVER-671 > Project: Maven Resolver > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Elliotte Rusty Harold > Priority: Major > > Apparently maven-resolver now requires Java 21 to build. It won't build even > with Java 17. This is getting inconveniently out of sync with what devs have > installed. E.g we can't even jdeprscan for Java 11 or 8 with this version. > This should be pushed back to 17 or further if possible. The bleeding edge is > too bloody. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.20.10#820010)
