Not a bug, but: Please update readme regarding minimum Java version (Jan 2022)

Open chjan opened this issue 3 years ago • 0 comments

Apparently, after extensive testing on many Windows machines, JasioHost is no longer compliant with the JRE8, Oracle's final version of JRE. One must use minimum JRE11, which Oracle does not provide. However, Oracle provides JDK11. But better, AdoptOpen JDK17 (of January 2022) provides backward compliance to JRE11, and should be the recommended JDK to install for Java applications using JasioHost.

This also means that JasioHost based applications must be compiled using SourceCompatibility 11 or later.

Many end customers using applications based on JasioHost have reported problems. E.g. customers of REW and SoundPimp. The problem is that JasioHost cannot fetch the microphone input when running under Oracle JRE8 (1.8). Result is no sound input.

Readme should be updated with a notification along these lines.
