RE: Regarding Jetspeed migration

Hi Team,

Request you to clarify below doubts:
1) Here in the below reply it was given like need to recompile with java 8, Does it mean need to recompile complete Jetspeed 2 with java 8? 
2) Below reply also says to apply patch to MinimalDataSource.java , What is the patch that we have to apply? Is this java class present in Jetspeed2 ? if yes how can we apply patch and build it?

Looking forward for your help.

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
