Ekaterina Dimitrova commented on CASSANDRA-18688:
-------------------------------------------------
bq. Enabling anything new, like versions 11<v<17, would require lots of CI iiuc
I think there is some confusion here. No one is suggesting adding those in CI
and maintaining them.
Currently we cannot start and run Cassandra 5.0 at all on versions between 11
and 17.
The options after this patch are:
1) Leave it that way and add the J flag only for 17+ if anyone wants to run
Cassandra experimentally on any of the newer versions.
2) Change it to the J flag suggested (same as 17+). Reject running on those
versions in general, give the people the chance to run Cassandra experimentally
on version 11-17 and 17+ by using the J flag
> Limit Java runtime in 5.0 to JDK 11 and 17 in scripts; add a flag to opt out
> of that

> Currently, we limit our users from building with non-default Java versions in
> build.xml.
> They can easily hack build.xml for test purposes with different versions.
> Cassandra–5.0 will be run on JDK11 and JDK17, but on startup, we do not limit
> people to those two, but only to everything >= 11. We should also put an
> upper limit of 17 in our Cassandra startup scripts. We can also add a flag to
> opt-out if someone wants to test with newer versions.
