JMeter 4 with Java 1.7
Hi,
Is there a way to use JMeter 4 with Java 1.7? Our organization yet to
upgrade Java to 1.8 version. Because of this we are unable to use JMeter
4.0.
Regards,
Prasad.

Hi
>But the problem is it is not possible to install Java 8 in our environment.
When you say "environment" - if you mean the machines (or your test lab or
laptop) from which JMeter is going to run , because of some organization
policy , ok then yes you cant use a JMeter version that needs Java 8 (If
docker is fine , then so should be any other VM technology that would allow
you to install whatever Java version)
If by environment , you mean your actual application (on which your code
runs), then Marek is correct. Your application and what its running on has
no relation to your test machine. Usually organizations may be slow to
upgrade Java for their actual applications but there is rarely a
restriction that prevents people from doing so on their laptops or test
clients which is why we feel you are mixing up 2 different things.

Yes I am aware of the possibility of using multiple Java versions on same
machine. For example specifying "Java installation path" in Jmeter.bat can
take the required Java version. But the problem is it is not possible to
install Java 8 in our environment. Also as Glinius said JMeter 4 will not
work with Java 7 because it will not even get compiled. So answer to my
question is that it is not possible to use JMeter 4 with Java 7.

I know Java matters, but as I said, you don't have to run both apps on
the same JVM. You can run your app with Java 7, and JMeter with Java 8 .
That should be possible even on the same machine, but you should really
use JMeter from a different machine in any case.

Hi Marek, JMeter was built using Java. So Java version does matter for
JMeter.

Can't you run JMeter with Java 8 and your application with Java 7? It's
not a tool that somehow tests the code of your app itself; it creates
requests and reads responses... For that, the Java version should not
matter...
The community will correct me if I'm wrong here, please.

Hi Glinius,
Thanks for your response. Java 8 Docker container option looks
interesting. I will check.
Regards,
Prasad.

According to JMeter changelog
<https://jmeter.apache.org/changes_history.html> the latest JMeter version
which is compatible with Java 7 is JMeter 3.1
<https://www.blazemeter.com/blog/whats-new-jmeter-31>
I don't think you will be able to use JMeter 4 with Java 7 as it simply
will not compile.
With regards to "organization" if you really need JMeter 4 you can point the
responsible persons to JMeter Best Practices you should always be using the
latest version of JMeter
<https://jmeter.apache.org/usermanual/best-practices.html> , moreover the
end of public updates for Java 7 was in April 2015 (>3 years ago)
Be aware that you can always download Java 8 (or higher) from OpenJDK
archives <https://jdk.java.net/8/> or use Java 8 Docker containers
<https://hub.docker.com/_/java/> so you could bundle Java distribution
along with the required JMeter distribution along with the tests
