JDK-8209966: Update minimum boot JDK to 11 #174
Conversation
NOTE: this is not yet ready to merge, since we want to wait until JDK 11 has released its final (GA) build before requiring it for building FX. |
This is now ready for review. Pending the review, this will only be merged after JDK 11 is released, which is scheduled for Tuesday, 2018-09-25. |
@tiainen this might require you to update your build machine with the latest JDK 11, since EA builds of JDK 11 will be below the minimum. |

I assume this will work with the changes in e7da3eb (which should then retrieve a jdk with at least buildnum 28)
Thanks for the heads up. We'll update the JDK on our build machines to the released JDK 11. |
Note: I updated the date of the commit, and pushed it, to trigger a CI test build, but the content itself is unchanged from the previous version. |
Fix for JBS issue JDK-8209966.
Bump the minimum JDK version needed to build JavaFX to jdk-11+28.
Note that this will not change the
javac
--source
or --target flags (which are controlled in build.gradle by the'sourceCompatibility'
option), which will remain at 10.This will allow us to implement the following follow-on issues:
--source 11 --target 11
