While some might have some preferences on more recent Java versions, I haven't seen any objections to Java 8. Staying on Java 8 shouldn't really cause issues for anyone. Can we settle on Java 8 so this isn't an impediment to getting a new BeanUtils 2.0 release out the door? Josh.

I'd prefer 17 for myself, but I know it might be slightly aggresive/radical . Anyway, if using versions equals/under 17, we can use Spring as a shield or something, as for people they wanna upgrade spring version they must upgrade their program to support jdk17 = = "don't blame us, Spring did the upgrade first" or something lol Gary Gregory <garydgreg...@gmail.com> 于2024年9月17日周二 05:03写道: > I think that for now I am leaning towards staying on Java 8. > > Gary > > On Sat, Sep 14, 2024, 3:42 AM Xeno Amess <xenoam...@gmail.com> wrote: > > > for 90%+ normal user each version under which spring using be OK > > ________________________________ > > From: Richard Zowalla <rich...@zowalla.com> > > Sent: Saturday, September 14, 2024 12:59:15 PM > > To: Commons Developers List <dev@commons.apache.org> > > Subject: Re: [beanutils] Java plaform for 2.0 > > > > My 2 cents are: BeanUtils is often used in the EE ecosystem EE 9.1 > targets > > 8/11, EE 10 targets 11/17, EE 11 targets 17 or higher. > > > > People are still doing the EE8 to 9.1/10 move (thanks to the name > change). > > So perhaps 11 or 17 would be a good fit for a baseline version. > > > > Gruß > > Richard > > > > Am 14.
