Does ice 3.4.2 support java 7?

mathgl

Hi all

the question is as title. If the answer is no, is it possible to build Ice.jar against java 7 by myself?

Thanks

Hi,

It's not officially supported by 3.4.2 because Java 7 wasn't released at the time we released 3.4.2. However, I don't expect any issues with using Java 7 and Ice 3.4.2. You don't need to re-compile the Jar, the jar file from the Ice distribution should work with Java 7.

If you want to re-compile it with Java 7, you can download the Ice source distribution and follow the instructions in the distribution.

Note also that Ice 3.5b supports Java 7, you might want to give it a try as well (you can download it from the beta download page).

Cheers,
Benoit.
