Pablo Estrada commented on BEAM-2530:
-------------------------------------

The Beam 2.12.0 release has been tested by building with Java 8, and running with Java 11. We have good test coverage now (thanks to work by [~mwalenia] and  [~ŁukaszG]). So Beam 2.12.0 will have basic, experimental support for Java 11.

> The goal of this task is to validate that the Java SDK and the Java Direct Runner (and its tests) work as intended on the next Java LTS version (Java 11 /18.9). For this we will base the compilation on the java.base profile and include other core Java modules when needed.  
> *Notes:*
> - Ideally validation of the IOs/extensions will be included but if serious issues are found they will be tracked independently.
> - The goal of using the Java Platform module system is out of the scope of this work.
> - Support for other runners will be a tracked as a separate effort because other runners depend strongly in the support of the native runner ecosystems.
