Java 11 compatibility #86

Closed lasselindqvist closed 5 years ago

lasselindqvist commented 5 years ago

I see 1.0.0 is not Java 11 compatible, because it depends on JWJGL 2.9.3 which is not Java 11 compatible (AWTGLCanvas class at least is not).

JWJGL 3 seems to be compatible with Java 11 and I see that the master branch is already depending on that version.

Any plans on when a release supporting Java 11 would be ready or are there any open issues that would benefit from contributions?

No current plans as of yet to raise the min Java version from 8. A release of the current master may come in the next few months, after I have had a chance to rewrite how Ardor3D handles text input.

Yes, building the project 8 makes sense. My concern was just that those builds are compatible with both Java 8 and Java 11. I will test this anyway soon by building the JARs from master branch.
