Do anyone know if ACF2021 will work with JDK 17?

Per Charlie Arehart’s (@carehart) blog at https://www.carehart.org/blog/client/index.cfm/2022/1/24/java_updates_Jan_2021: Java 17 is not yet supported for CF 2018 or CF2021. Doesn’t necessarily mean it won’t work, but it is not yet supported.

I do, just not on social very much. This https://www.petefreitag.com/item/860.cfm was the most info I'd seen. Thanks!

Yup, I tend to be “anti-social” for the most part as well, but in this case “follow” as in just sort of periodically see if he’s written anything new. And he often writes something on his blog around Java updates and CF updates. His blog is one of the resources I just tend to check first if I have a question.

Keep in mind that "not supported" usually just means that our engineering team has not had the chance by that point to do a full regression test on the latest JDK version. So will it work? Yeah probably. But it isn't "officially supported" yet because we cannot guarantee that all of the code-set will 100% work. Definitely recommend backing up the server so you can fall back if any issues arise.

Here's the ticket I entered shortly after Java 16 came out. https://tracker.adobe.com/#/view/CF-4211844
