Cassandra Targett updated SOLR-15801:
-------------------------------------
Issue Type: Bug (was: Task)
> Ref Guide docs on Java support out of date
> ------------------------------------------
>
> Key: SOLR-15801
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-15801
> Project: Solr
> Issue Type: Bug
> Security Level: Public(Default Security Level. Issues are Public)
> Components: documentation
> Reporter: Cassandra Targett
> Priority: Major
>
> Back in SOLR-12809 (Apr 2019), Erick worked to add some docs to the
> system_requirements.adoc Ref Guide page about supported Java versions. There
> was a lot of discussion how to do this, but we ultimately settled on (in
> part):
> {noformat}
> Lucene/Solr 8.x is the current stable release line and will have "point
> releases", i.e., 8.1, 8.2, etc. until Lucene/Solr 9.0 is released.
> Solr 8.x is currently tested against Java 8, 9, 10, 11, 12 and (pre-release)
> 13.
> There is also development and testing with the future Lucene/Solr 9.x release
> line, which will require Java 11 as a minimum version. This line is currently
> tested against Java 11, 12 and (pre-release) 13.
> Lucene/Solr 7.x and earlier release lines are not tested on a continuous
> basis.
> {noformat}
> This hasn't been updated since 2019 so is now very much out of date - Java 13
> isn't pre-release anymore, and I feel sure we're not still testing 9, 10, 12
> or any other non-LTS that's already EOL. I only skimmed SOLR-12809 but I
> didn't really see how he found the list he decided to use - if I had to
> guess, though, I'd say he looked at all the various Jenkins jobs being run on
> Apache hardware, Uwe's hardware, and maybe Steve Rowe's(?).
> I'm not really sure how to deal with this, since there's 2 parts to the
> current problem:
> # Update the page in the Ref Guide to say what is being tested today (and
> republish 8.10 and 8.11 maybe), which depends on figuring out what's tested
> today
> # Figure out how we're going to keep this up to date on an ongoing basis,
> since any release could be tested on different JDKs which would make the page
> out of date at any time.
