How are you planning to move from 5 to 8/11? Our migration from 5/6 to 8 was really painful.
- gizmo385 8y agoI thought the whole point of a backwards compatible language like Java was that transitions should be relatively easy to make?
- toyg 8y agoBackwards-compatible only means you can run old code on new VMs, with the correct target flags; it doesn't say anything about mixing new and old code.
- akerro 8y agoA lot of stuff like ant/maven, other build tools, plugins, libraries broke due to hardening in JVM that puts a lot of more restrictions on reflection.
