Is the lucee in maven compiled in Java 7?

[Derek Lin]

Hi,

Does anyone know if lucee in maven is compiled in Java 7?:

I am trying to migrate from Railo to Lucee, after changing the dependency, I get:

Exception in thread "main" MultiException[java.lang.UnsupportedClassVersionError

: railo/loader/servlet/CFMLServlet : Unsupported major.minor version 51.0, java.

That’s a pretty good indication that you’re trying to run Java 7/8 compiled code on Java 6.

You know that Java 6 hasn’t had any public updates for two years? Even Java 7 has been EOL’d (end of public updates is scheduled for April 2015).

Yup, it's compiled in 7.  The containers we're using (Jetty 9, Tomcat 8, WildFly, etc.) are all dependent on 7, so it seemed to make sense.  There are *significant* performance increases in Java 7-- plus, there are now bundles with a JRE available, so if you run into trouble try one of those.

We've moved all our middleware to Wildfly/Jetty  and Java 8 during the last 60 days. Java 8 performed very well for us in the pre migration workload simulations, with very little configuration, much to our CM's delights. No more documentating verbose 10 line java directives.

Oracle has a targeted date of end of public updates for Java 7, April 2015. http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/eol-135779.html, but this doesn't mean EOL for java 7 just yet. They are just encouraging a bump to Java 8.

Ok.  Thanks guys for the info.  I'll try lucee when I can upgrade my Java.  I still need Java 6 running for compatibility :)

what is Java 6 compatible with that Java 7 isn't? (bugs and security holes don't count...)
