Last time I looked into this (>month ago) the EE7 spec did not clearly said J2SE7 is required as minimum and that's why I intentionally did not enforce it. (In reply to comment #1) > Last time I looked into this (>month ago) the EE7 spec did not clearly said > J2SE7 is required as minimum and that's why I intentionally did not enforce it. Totally agree with David to not enforce source level to version 7. Especially now when we found out that most of EE components (JSF, EL, mostly JMS) are J2SE6 compatible. You can still easily setup JDK7 only for your GF and deploy EE application with J2SE6 sources there. By the way it looks to me like the same concept as in cases of JEE6. Maybe we could add warnings that the source level 7 is recommended for the EE7 platform. Ok, for now I am changing to enhancement. If we find out there is a real bug for the user, let's change it back to defect. This old bug may not be relevant anymore. If you can still reproduce it in 8.2 development builds please reopen this issue. Thanks for your cooperation, NetBeans IDE 8.2 Release Boss |
