Description

Because the TomEE server uses for the analysis of the deployed classes the asm library, there should be included the library asm9.1 or higher, which does officially support all of the features from java 17. It is especially important because Java 17 is the LTS Version from Oracle, so very much suitable for the development of production stable applications.

TomEE 9 is based on Tomcat 10 which supports applications written with Java 17.
