Use Java 17 by default in Depedency Scanning
Proposal
We are changing the default version of Java in Dependency Scanning to be 17 as that is the current Long Term Support (LTS) version. We still support the same versions (8,11,13,14,15,16,17) it is only which is enabled by default that is changing. If you need to change the default to one of the other supported versions set the DS_JAVA_VERSION
variable.
Implementation plan
-
updated gemnasium-maven analyzer
to use Java 17 by default gitlab-org/security-products/analyzers/gemnasium-maven!193 (merged) -
update the default version of DS_JAVA_VERSION
in the documentation -
announce the change in 15.0 removals (not a removal but a breaking change)
