[DISCUSS] support for Java 8?

All,
  I'm somewhat interested in moving to require Java 11 to clean up
some dependency stuff.  This is not a burning need.
 I wanted to get a sense from our community. Do we still need to
support 8?  If so, for how long?

  Cheers,

                Tim

We are moving to java 11 because it's required by Lucene 9, that has some
features we are interested in.

We use TIKA as a library, using ForkParser to protect against catastrophic
errors. And we are receiving a lot of illegal reflective access warnings
because of some Tika dependencies, although they are just warnings. I don't
expect them to be solved in dependencies in a short period of time...

This is a sensible upgrade, we would need to pay attention to regression
tests, things like TIKA-3596 could happen...

I'm +0, except if java 11 has something we need.

Cheers

Hi, folks.

I'm +1 to moving to jdk11. Even some distros dropping 1.8 lately so I don't
have strong points against letting 11 be minimal version.

We use mix of 11 as target and 11+17 as runtime with 1.8 for some legacy
applications like Nexus OSS.

I'm interested to know how much of our downstream users run Tika as a
library and not in isolated context like tika-server/tika-pipes.

If Java 11 makes life easier, then shipping it for Tika 2 would make sense to me.   Java 8 is well….    old….

Weak +1 for keeping java 8 because it's long term supported by Oracle.

I've been not adding it unless I actually add something, because Oracle
committed to several more years of JDK8 support. So I'd only add it if we
want something, like the proc manager for pipes maybe?

Hi Tim, 

from our side we already dropped java 8 and only support java 11, so it would not be a problem for us

Cheers,
Julien
