JBOSS 8 Compability

[rufus_sidford]

We are currently using JBoss EAP 7 JAVA 8 to host an application that uses the SAP Crystal Reports, developer version for Eclipse Runtime libraries. 

We need to upgrade to JBoss EAP 8 JAVA 17 however the latest SP 31 Runtime libraries do not seem to be compatible with it. We are getting JAVA namespace issues. 

Is there an alternative Runtime libraries that uses the modern JAVA namespaces?

The current namespaces are Jakarta EE 8 and JBOSS EAP 8 uses Jakarta EE 10 API namespace

I suggest moving to JBoss 10.

See supported application in CR for Eclipse here:

https://www.sap.com/documents/2016/09/ea59ef67-887c-0010-82c7-eda71af511fa.html

10 seems to be the only one supported along with Java 8.

There is currently no such thing as JBoss 10.

JBoss 8 is the latest and current version.

I think the documentation is confused and is actually referring to Wildfly 10 - A very old version of wildfly. (Wildfly is sort of the FOSS version of JBOSS )

Currently we are using JBoss 7.4 and that maps to Wildfly 23

We are about to move to JBoss 8.0 and that maps to Wildfly 28

The latest version of Wildfly is 35
