stevedlawrence opened a new pull request #59: Add new tunable (errorOnUnsupportedJavaVersion) to allow running with older versions of Java
URL: https://github.com/apache/incubator-daffodil/pull/59
 
 
   Currently we intentionally throw an exception if Daffodil is not run
   with Java 8 due to bugs in how Java 7 handles decoding errors. However,
   there are some cases where a user has no choice except to run under Java
   7. This patch adds a new tunable "errorOnUnsupportedJavaVersion" that causes
   Java 8 check failures to be logged as a warning rather than thrown as an
   exception. This allows the above use case to be possible, with the explicit
   understanding that it is not fully tested and is know to have unexpected
   behavior in some circumstances.
