[jira] [Created] (RAT-283) Unify Java 8 requirement or
non-requirement
Elliotte Rusty Harold created RAT-283:
-----------------------------------------
Summary: Unify Java 8 requirement or non-requirement
Key: RAT-283
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/RAT-283
Project: Apache Rat
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: Elliotte Rusty Harold
In the pom.xml I find dependencies that are very old to avoid requiring Java *1.6* or later. However I also see commons-io 2.8.0 that requires Java *1.8* or later. Make a clear decision on the minimum version of Java and upgrade or downgrade dependencies accordingly.
FYI Apache Maven requires Java 1.7 so I'd prefer not to go higher than that.
```
<dependency>
<groupId>commons-collections</groupId>
<artifactId>commons-collections</artifactId>
<!-- Later versions require Java 1.6+ -->
<version>3.2.2</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>commons-io</groupId>
<artifactId>commons-io</artifactId>
<version>2.8.0</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.apache.commons</groupId>
<artifactId>commons-lang3</artifactId>
<!-- later versions require Java 1.6+ -->
<version>3.5</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.apache.commons</groupId>
<artifactId>commons-compress</artifactId>
<!-- later versions require Java 1.6+ -->
<version>1.19</version>
</dependency>

Fwd: [jira] [Created] (RAT-283) Unify Java 8 requirement or

Posted by "P. Ottlinger" <po...@apache.org>.
Hi fellow devs & users,
any comment on this one?
I do remember that past decisions to drop/upgrade to certain JDKs
yielded hefty discussions.
Personally I would not mind going to Java8 minimum during build and runtime.
Any opinions?
Cheers,
Phil
