[jira] [Created] (DERBY-6974) Deprecate support for building Derby under JDK 8

Rick Hillegas created DERBY-6974:
------------------------------------

             Summary: Deprecate support for building Derby under JDK 8
                 Key: DERBY-6974
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-6974
             Project: Derby
          Issue Type: Task
          Components: Build tools
    Affects Versions: 10.15.0.0
            Reporter: Rick Hillegas
            Assignee: Rick Hillegas


In July, the Derby community voted to deprecate support for JDK 8 and move development on the 10.15 trunk to JDK 9. See http://apache-database.10148.n7.nabble.com/RESULT-VOTE-Sunsetting-support-for-Java-8-td147735.html

This issue tracks the work of converting the Derby build from JDK 8 to JDK 9 and higher. This effort relies on the work already done on DERBY-6856.

Platform-specific distributions of Oracle JDK 9 can be found here: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jdk9-downloads-3848520.html
