Question

CF10 or CF11 and Java 8??

Hello, everyone,

Since Java 7 EOL is fast approaching (April, as I understand it), I have been tasked with doing research to determine the viability of CF10 or CF11 and Java 1.8.

I've been seeing a LOT of complaints about Java 8, update 31, in forums.

Regardless of update version, has anyone experienced any issues with Java 8 as it relates to ColdFusion Server versions 10 or 11?

We are looking at having to upgrade before April, and need to know of any pitfalls that others have experienced, or if there is anything specific that needs to be done in order to make it a smooth transition.

All valid input greatly appreciated.

V/r,

^_^

I'm running two CF10 servers plus my local development machine on Java 1.8.0_25 without issue.  Just make sure you have at least update 11 or 12 applied before you switch CF10 (one of those added support for Java 8).

Hi, Carl,

Thanks for the heads-up!  I'm not sure which CF Server we'll be using, but if it's CF10, I'll be sure to let the PTB know that it needs -MINIMUM- update 11 or 12 to support Java 8.  Everything else working well, on that??

V/r,

^_^
