[jira] [Comment Edited] (LUCENE-10578) Make minimum required Java version for build more specific

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-10578?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=17538867#comment-17538867 ]

-----------------------------------------------------------------

Thanks [~rcmuir] for your comments, and especially for the pointer to runtime version spec - this was my major concern here. We can safely depend on the minor and security versions (I assume the vendors comply with the spec... I'll check some distributions), then I think we'll be able to have it in the next release; it'd be more important in the maintenance/release branches.

>             Project: Lucene - Core
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>            Reporter: Tomoko Uchida

> See this mail thread for background: [https://lists.apache.org/thread/6md5k94pqdkkwg0f66hor2sonm2t77jo]
> To prevent developers (especially, release managers) from using too old java versions, we could (should?) elaborate the minimum required java versions for the build.
> Possible questions in my mind:
>  * should we stop the build with an error or emit a warning and continue?
>  * do minor versions depend on the vendor? if yes, should we also specify the vendor?
>  * how do we determine/maintain the minimum version?
