Java Version

[Alex Vilalta]

Hi

Which version of Java is required to run Eureka? can run on Java 6?

Thanks,
Alex

Eureka 1.x was recently upgraded to Java 7, so I would not recommend to run it on Java6 anymore.

Our application container is running 1.6. Do you know which version is the last one before the bump to 1.7?

We only need eureka-client at this point if that helps lead toward a different answer...

I do not believe we have introduced any incompatible changes with Java6 yet, so you can try using the latest version.

The latest version is compiled to 1.7 bytecode (version 51.0).

You should be able to recompile the latest code with Java 6. Looking into the past builds, I believe version 1.1.139 should be still on Java6.

I tried to go down that route, but I found that at least one dependency was also only available from the central repositories in 1.7 bytecode form.  I was afraid to fall any farther down that rabbit hole.

https://github.com/nebula-plugins/gradle-netflixoss-project-plugin/blob/gradle-2.2/src/main/groovy/nebula/plugin/netflixossproject/NetflixOssProjectPlugin.groovy seems to suggest that it requires at least 1.7

Thanks for recommending 1.1.139 — that appears to get me past this current roadblock!

Hi,

In regards to this topic, does anyone know if Eureka is compatible with Java 8?

Thanks,

JM

We have never did explicit testing of Eureka with Java 8. In theory it should work.
