Description

Hello 

 

When starting TomEE-9.0.0-M7 with an application compiled with JDK17 I am getting the following error:

Caused by: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Unsupported class file major version 60
        at org.apache.xbean.asm7.ClassReader.<init>(ClassReader.java:195)

I see that this version of TomEE still has shaded version of asm7 has only limited support for newer Java versions (max. JDK 13)

 

Is there a plan to have a new version of TomEE  which targets the jakarta namespace and also supports new JDK?

 

Regards,
