Ken Fyten added a comment - 03/Jul/18 5:30 PM Okay all our builds now specify source and target class version compatibility with JDK 1.8. We have the following warnings that we should correct related to using jdk 1.8: [javac] Compiling 63 source files to /Users/Ken/Code/svn/icefaces4-trunk/icefaces/ace/generator/build [javac] /Users/Ken/Code/svn/icefaces4-trunk/icefaces/ace/generator/src/org/icefaces/ace/generator/merge/FacesConfigMerge.java:19: warning: OutputFormat is internal proprietary API and may be removed in a future release [javac] import com.sun.org.apache.xml.internal.serialize.OutputFormat; [javac] ^ [javac] /Users/Ken/Code/svn/icefaces4-trunk/icefaces/ace/generator/src/org/icefaces/ace/generator/merge/FacesConfigMerge.java:20: warning: XMLSerializer is internal proprietary API and may be removed in a future release [javac] import com.sun.org.apache.xml.internal.serialize.XMLSerializer; ...

Ken Fyten added a comment - 05/Jul/18 3:36 PM Please verify that the xerces 2.12.0 lib is only required while building ICEfaces itself, and not for runtime deployments.

Arturo Zambrano added a comment - 05/Jul/18 5:09 PM Yes, Xerces is only used for compiling and not at runtime. We only use it to merge our custom faces-config.xml with the generated faces-config.xml, and we include the merged faces-config.xml in the ace jar
