JDK version

[TANIGUCHI Takaki]

Hi,

Which version do we use JDK?

8(finish providing updates in several months), 11(LTS, but it is not
provided official OpenJDK LTS) or follow newest OpenJDK?

I build using jdk11. Having the code compatible with jdk8 sounds good to me.

The build in the CI is with openjdk 8 at the moment. I will add openjdk 11 next. For OpenJDK 11 LTS I wait for the next version to see if it is supported for a longer time. My wish would be to use only LTS.

If I remember correctly Oracle is not planing to support the Open JDK for any version longer than 6 months from now on. I think it was Red Hat that announced that they will take care of the support of OpenJdk after Oracle transitions to the new version. Hard to say what will happen now with IBM buying Red Hat. If I understand correctly the LTS is for the oracle builds that are not $free unfortunately anymore (starting from JDK 11)

Amazon is planing to support OpenJdk 8 and 11 until 2023 on their platforms (i think gitlab is using the amazon cloude for builds, right?)

That is only partly right...

The builds at GitLab are running in a docker container. Currently we use a docker container with openjdk-8 installed on top of debian stretch. So my hope is that the Linux community will support OpenJDK 11 as a LTS. At the moment I saw some preparations at the OpenJDK project that lets me hope that this is right. They created a forest for maintenance, which they did not for OpenJDK 9 or OpenJDK 10.
