[jira] [Commented] (BEAM-13468) Dataflow runner - be more lenient with agent java version

["Clément Guillaume (Jira)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BEAM-13468?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=17516145#comment-17516145 ] 

Clément Guillaume commented on BEAM-13468:
------------------------------------------

I'll take another stab at it with another approach: if the jvm is not one of recognized ones, fallback on java 11 (I think we can still try later to implement java version as a job option)

> DataflowRunner currently uses {{Environments.getJavaVersion}} to detect java version and build the Dataflow user agent string.
> {{Environments.getJavaVersion}} only accept a small subset of java version (8, 11 and 17)
> It would be nice the user agent string to accept more exotic java versions to allow running the agent on more exotic jvm (still keeping the beam model itself in java 11).
