[GitHub] [cordova-android] SchnWalter opened a new issue #908: Support newer JDK version

SchnWalter opened a new issue #908: Support newer JDK version
URL: https://github.com/apache/cordova-android/issues/908
 
 
   # Feature Request
   
   Cordova should support newer JDK versions. In pull request #446 a check was introduced to enforce the JDK version but no real reasoning was provided.
   
   
   ## Motivation Behind Feature
   
   Oracle has announced that the "End of Public Updates of Java SE 8" is on `December 2020`.
   
   
   ## Feature Description
   
   Now that the JAVA 8 EOL is near, I think that all the issues in newer JDKs should be documented and a new tag should be added just for issues that prevent JDK updates.

   Android doesn’t use oracles java but their own implementation, which at the moment is like java 8. So this is an android limitation, not something cordova can fix.

   Some other information to know is that Android Studio still uses OpenJDK 8 (`openjdk version "1.8.0_202-release"`). It does not use/bundle the Oracle's version.
   
   If any changes were made, I suspect it would only be supporting OpenJDK 8 and to be in line with what Android Studio uses.

   If any changes were made, I suspect it to be for supporting OpenJDK 8 to be in line with what Android Studio uses. IMO.

   The current version of Gradle that cordova-android requires also depends on java 8. Although in cordova-android@9, it will be using gradle 6.x, and they added support for up to JDK13.
   
   Android Studio expects you to use Java 8. They don't officially support higher versions of java. So I believe this makes android studio the only blocker for a JDK upgrade. It doesn't mean android studio won't work in a higher JDK version, but it won't be guaranteed.
   
   Android's docs where they talk about this can be found [here](https://developer.android.com/studio/write/java8-support)

   Some other information to know is that Android Studio (AS) still uses OpenJDK 8 (`openjdk version "1.8.0_202-release"`). It does not use/bundle the Oracle's version.
   
   If any changes were made, I suspect it would only be supporting OpenJDK 8 and to be in line with what Android Studio uses.
