Ismael Juma created KAFKA-7264: ---------------------------------- Summary: Support Java 11 Key: KAFKA-7264 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-7264 Project: Kafka Issue Type: Improvement Reporter: Ismael Juma Fix For: 2.1.0
Java 11 is the next LTS release and it should be released by the end of September. Kafka should ideally support that in the 2.1.0 release. A few known issues/requirements: * A new version of EasyMock with a new version of cglib and ASM7_EXPERIMENTAL (or ASM7 when Java 11 ships) enabled (both projects have the necessary code changes, but they are not included in released versions). * The rat and checkstyle gradle plugins rely on the ability to mutate user.dir, but that's not allowed in Java 11. So they fail. * A new version of Jacoco is needed, the changes required are not in a released version yet. * Many SSL tests in clients fail. Probably related to the TLS 1.3 changes in Java 11. * Many SSL (and some SASL) tests in Core fail. Maybe same underlying reason as the clients failures, but I didn't investigate. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
