[jira] [Commented] (TOMEE-2260) TomEE should support library asm7 (xbean 4.11 or higher) to support fully Java 11

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TOMEE-2260?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16683551#comment-16683551 ] 

Martin Wiesner commented on TOMEE-2260:
---------------------------------------

Could you also check whether this issue affects TomEE 7.0.x?
 * If _true_: please updated +Affects Version/s+ field in the details section above.
 * _else_: please comment so others know that backports to still maintained versions (see above) are not needed.

Personal view:
I think this might also affect the upcoming 7.0.6, as there are still many production systems around that rely on 7.0.5+. Some systems are being upgraded to Ubuntu 18.04 LTS in which Java11 will be a LTS version.

> Because the TomEE server uses for the analysis of the deployed classes the asm library, there should be included the library asm7, which does officially support all of the features from java 11. It is especially important because Java 11 is the LTS Version from Oracle, so very much suitable for the development of production stable applications. Todays asm6 library used in versions 7.1.0 and 8.0.0-M1 does not support java 11 officially and fully, asm6 in versions 6.2 and 6.2.1 (in xbeans 4.9 and 4.10) supports java 11 only in experimental way.
