Description Ralf Sternberg

With the current (RAP 3.1 M2) target requiring Java 8, snippets and examples can't be run from the IDE anymore. In OSGi, bundles can't be resolved because of the JRE requirement, and without OSGi, you end up with UnsupportedClassVersionError.

We should either provide a Java-7 compatible target or update our examples to Java 8.

See bug 478717 for including a Java 1.7 compatible version of Jetty in our RAP deliverables. Independent from that we should probably update our examples to Java 1.8 in the long run.
