Description

New point version.

We might want to promote this to 12.0.

Change History (7)

comment:1 by Douglas R. Reno, 2 years ago

Bringing it back to 12.0 would be a good idea since it has some fixes for Java 18 and higher (we're on 20.0.2)

Milestone: 12.112.0

We can do this for 12.0 even though it's tagged. The only thing in the book that uses it is fop and that isn't tagged yet.

There's more than fop. Libreoffice, Subversion, and OpenCV also use it

Replying to Douglas R. Reno:

And docbook-xsl (but only with the external Xerces2 Java).
Subversion only for java bindings.
Libreoffice is recommended.
I don't know anything about opencv needing ant.  It's optional.

Ant 1.10.14 contains an important change wherein it no longer uses or sets Java SecurityManager when running on Java versions 18 and higher. This should allow projects to build on Java 18 and higher versions.
