Is it possible to write in Java 14?
Posted: Sat Jun 27, 2020 6:22 pm
I'm a fullstack web programmer who's not super familiar with Java. I've installed the Java 8 JRE/JDK as per the getting started guide here but i'm really longing for some of the features that the newer Java has.
Before I bork my system trying, is it possible to write the plugins in the newest Java and compile down to Java 8 using the "Compiler compliance level" settings in Eclipse?
Ideally i'd like to write in Scala (or even Kotlin) but I think that's going to be down the road.
I would appreciate any tips/tricks/feedback!
