### Release notes Dependency Scanning and License Scanning will be able to support SBT projects from SBT 1.9.0 and up using [Java 21](https://openjdk.org/projects/jdk/21/). [Support was limited to SBT 1.9.7 in an earlier iteration](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/421174+). ### Problem to solve As a user, I want to specify Java version 21, so that I can use the most recent version of Java with Dependency Scanning and License Scanning with my SBT 1.9.0+ project. ### Intended users * [Sasha (Software Developer)](https://about.gitlab.com/handbook/product/personas/#sasha-software-developer) * [Cameron (Compliance Manager)](https://about.gitlab.com/handbook/product/personas/#cameron-compliance-manager) ### User experience goal The user should be able to set the `DS_JAVA_VERSION` environment variable in their `.gitlab-ci.yml` to `21` and Java 21 should be used for their SBT 1.9.0+ project. ### Proposal We are going to add version of SBT that supports Java 21 to the Dependency Scanning Docker image once this version of SBT has been released. ### Documentation * Document SBT support for Java 21 projects ### Available Tier * Ultimate ### Implementation Plan TBC <hr/> <!-- triage-serverless v3 PLEASE DO NOT REMOVE THIS SECTION --> *This page may contain information related to upcoming products, features and functionality.
