mqsicreatebar command with '-JDKCompilerVersion 8'

mqsicreatebar -data C:\Users\ddomagalskidev\Desktop\ace\sii-integration-ace\sii-integration-ace -b C:\Users\ddomagalskidev\Desktop\ace.bar -a AdapterAD -deployAsSource -trace -v /tmp/createbar.log -skipWSErrorCheck -JDKCompilerVersion 8

INFO: Registered provider org.slf4j.simple.SimpleServiceProvider of service org.slf4j.spi.SLF4JServiceProvider in bundle slf4j.simple

Mqsicreatebar:

An error has occurred. See the log file

C:\Users\ddomagalskidev\AppData\Local\IBM\ACET13-config\13.0.1.0\configuration\1739261319885.log.


It appears that when i attempts to run the mqsicreatebar command with '-JDKCompilerVersion 8' that the command fails as all of its modules have a dependency on eclipse that has anested dependency on Java 17:

Unresolved requirement: Require-Capability: osgi.ee; filter:="(&(osgi.ee=JavaSE)(version=17))"

It is not supporting in ACE 13 but we have all of application base on java 8.

    Dominik,

    Thank you for submitting this request regarding the -JDKCompilerVersion 8 parameter for the mqsicreatebar command in ACE 13.

    After careful review, we are rejecting this RFE.

    The transition of App Connect Enterprise (ACE) away from Java 8 is well-documented and is a critical part of our modernization roadmap. As seen in your error logs, the underlying Eclipse framework and OSGi dependencies in ACE 13 have moved to a Java 17 baseline. This shift will continue in its entirety over the next couple of years across the product suite.

    We recommend that you begin migrating your build pipelines and application code to Java 17 to ensure compatibility with ACE 13 and future releases.

    Also, please review the statement of direction (SOD) on IBM App Connect Enterprise clarification of Java support.
