Issue

  • Liferay DXP 7.2 is compatible with JDK11, how can I have the same version on Jenkins within my Liferay PaaS project?

Environment

  • Liferay PaaS

Resolution

  • Per Liferay DXP 7.2 Compatibility Matrix, the JDK11 compatibility with Liferay only refers to the core product. For building and compiling, JDK8 must be used.

    Quoting the relevant sentence:

    "JDK Certification is for runtime only. JDK 8 is required to build or compile Liferay DXP Projects."
