[2.1 scala] Java 7 Support

[Drew Kutcharian]

Hey Guys,

Is anyone using Java 7 for development? How about running in production? Any issues?

Thanks,

Drew

I'm using JDK 7 on OSX for development, and on CentOS 6.2 for staging (haven't quite gone to production yet).  I haven't found any specific bugs that appear in JDK 7 that don't also appear on JDK 6.

I am using Java 7 on GNU/Linux (Slackware):
 - development x86_64
 - production ARMv7

My projects are still small. So far, no problems.

regards
giovanni

I use Java 7 on Mac.

same here JDK7 on Mac! I had seen a few bugs a few months ago but apparently latest releases of JDK7 are better! (Mac is not really the reference for JVM, it's clear)

Java 1.7.0_05 64-bit in production on CentOS 6.3, and development on Fedora 14

Zero issues in production with two Play 2.1 (on scala 2.9.2) apps ;-)

I just answered your other post with the exact same solution.  We should document this.

I have no idea what the root cause is, but if you're running Play 2.1-x against Oracle JDK 1.7.0_05 on OS X 10.7.5 Play will not handle file uploads greater than 52.5k.  The request is never handed off to the handler assigned to that URL.  I tested the same set up on Ubuntu 12 and everything works perfectly.

The fix for THIS PARTICULAR PROBLEM (it worked on my Mac) was to upgrade to Oracle JDK 1.7.0_09. 

I discovered there have been other reports of Oracle JDK 1.7 problems with reference to Play 2.x and OS X.
