Re: [jakartaee-platform-dev] Rename Jakarta EE 9 to 8.1, introduce the J

Arjan,

We have to separate the version of compiler and the version of Java runtime in TCK.

What i meant in this email was the javac version and the minimum bytecode version for the API releases.

Of course the TCK tests should run the tests with wide range of JRE versions and platforms too Win/Linux/Unix boxes and platforms on the Docker.

Cheers

Attempting to define appropriate templates for the module-info.class files for every API in time for the Jakarta EE 9 release is probably pushing it.  Since we're trying to eliminate or limit the new features going into Jakarta EE 9, my vote would be to leave this module-info.class idea off the list. 

Absolutely, even things that seem tiny tend to add extra time, especially when it's a platform wide thing that must be coordinated with all projects.

That being said, if my proposal of going for separate Jakarta EE 9 on JDK 8 and Jakarta EE 9 on JDK 11 certifications, with the requirements for the latter released on a later date, is accepted, then we *might* consider looking at the module-info.class for that potential JDK 11 release.

Kind regards,

Arjan
