There have been significant differences between JDKs, so it is always preferable to stay as close to the production version as possible.

That could potentially allow things to work, but it is usual to build, run tests, the software itself against the same JDK which is used on the production system. > CentOS as Andrew mentioned in comment #5 might be easier.

(It's also possible to install and add Oracle's JDKs as well for instance.) Running Fedora's Eclipse (on OpenJDK 1.8), it is possible to add OpenJDK 1.6 and OpenJDK 1.7 in it and run software, unit tests, etc. The Eclipse environment which is shipped with Fedora is much more extensive than the Eclipse environment from CentOS/RHEL or its developers toolset. > rather than maintaining your own Fedora packages for 6 & 7. > Why not just use CentOS or RHEL? That would seem like the simpler solution,
(In reply to Andrew John Hughes from comment #5) If the target is not Fedora, then building on CentOS as Andrew mentioned in comment #5 might be easier. Is it not possible to use '-source 7 -target 7' for this? Furthermore, what would such builds be targeting? They will still not work on Fedora unless they are fully self-contained. > to build applications for older application servers while all the included OpenJDK7 and OpenJDK6 are installed in addition and can be used > There's no reason to change the base JDK.

There is an option in yum to downgrade packages when only the version number has changed. I have all forms of obsolete checking disabled.

I expect OpenJDK 1.8 to upgrade OpenJDK 1.7 for end users, but for developers an option to allow installation of OpenJDK 1.7 through yum. > Restarting Dependency Resolution with new changes.

Changes obsoletes=1 to obsoletes=0 in /etc/yum.confĥ. Add this yum repository to the Fedora 21 (with obsoletes=0)Ĥ. Build OpenJDK 1.7 for Fedora (rpmbuild -rebuild on the CentOS 7 src package works fine) and put it in a yum repositoryģ. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):Ģ. When I try to install OpenJDK 1.7 from my repository, it refuses to install because OpenJDK 1.8 is already installed
