Drop java 8 support (?) #375

Open Rollczi opened 8 months ago

huanmeng-qwq commented 8 months ago

This is fatal for lower versions of Minecraft

CarmJos commented 8 months ago

Higher versions of Java have many pleasant features, but this is devastating to lower version games (minigames and PVP servers that still exist in large numbers).

KermanIsPretty commented 1 month ago

I think Lite Commands should update to atleast Java 17 following ViaVersion. Most Minigame/PvP servers already run a fork of the notchian server that can be updated or already support J17. Also if it is required lite commands can include a version that uses https://github.com/unimined/JvmDowngrader. I would love to see J21 support to utilize virtual threads, but its not a requirement.

Maybe you are right. But ProtocolLib says NO.

Of course, no matter what, I also strongly support LiteCommands upgrading to at least j17.

The new version of Java brings many syntax and performance advantages.

Any news on this? This would be an awesome change for the longevity of this project to update to at least Java 17. (21 preferred)

I'm in favor of this idea, but I'm currently involved in other functions
