Thanks! I don't have any problem with the changes, I guess I wasn't paying
attention and didn't realize they were in the 5.4 release. I've been
running Java 8 for quite a while and upgraded my Ant to 1.10.1 today.
Post by VampireActually it was decided to drop the support for 2 years end-of-life Java 7
and depend on Java 8 now, making it also possible to use Java 8 language
features in jEdit and plugins code.
So yes, Java 8 is required now.
This was also the cause for the needed upgrade of Ant, as the JDepend in
Ant before 1.9 was not compatible with the new bytecodes that were
introduced in Java 8.
Regards,
Björn
Post by Dale AnsonAnd along with that, is Java 1.8 really required, or is it just updating
things to the latest versions?
Post by Dale AnsonJust curious, what is it in Ant 1.9 that makes it required to build jEdit?
