RE: Regarding Jetspeed migration

Hi Team,

Jetspeed 2.2.2 is a sample example which runs with java 7. 
1) Can we create a new test application directly in java 8?
2) In the hello worls example they are creating a class on top of jetexpress example . Instead of developing over jetexpress, can we create a simple portlet application alone ?

Please clarify my doubts.

Regards,
Lalitha

Jetspeed 2.2.2 runs on Java 6 and Java 7 and is targeted for Tomcat 6 but should also run fine on Tomcat 7

If you really needed to run 2.2.2 on Java 8, you’d need to recompile it and apply a small patch to MinimalDataSource.java
