[jira] [Commented] (TAP5-2214) Make tapestry5 java8 compatible

["Jesse Kuhnert (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

Jesse Kuhnert commented on TAP5-2214:
-------------------------------------

Seems to me all of these issues might be more easily resolved in future by using gradle equivalent of:

https://code.google.com/p/google-guice/source/browse/pom.xml#207
OR
https://github.com/mybatis/mybatis-3/blob/master/pom.xml#L270

OR start the crazy train of I'm not sure what: 

(maybe it's cglib or asm or something, whatever..)
https://code.google.com/p/google-guice/issues/detail?id=759

which leads to yet more things played with here:
https://github.com/sonatype/sisu-guice/blob/master/core/pom.xml

Either way, seems like Tapestry might be easier to tinker with in this regard with some jarjar style logic. Only ~seems~ though, since I don't want to do the hard work myself. =p

> As it stands Tapestry does not work on java8. This seems to be caused by ASM. Updating the enclosed asm to 5.0_Bet seems to do the trick.
