👋 Welcome!

I'm using GitHub Discussions as a place to connect with other developers using the OpenJDK Snap package. I hope this can be a place where we can:

• Share ideas.
• Ask questions.
• Engage with other Java developers.
• Welcome others and be open-minded.

To get started, introduce yourself in a comment below and describe how you're using the Snap package.

I hope you've got time for a noob question...
I've been happily using the openjdk snap on my Raspberry Pi 4, running a Minecraft server for my grandson. Unfortunately, today Minecraft Spigot informed me that it couldn't run jdk's later than 18. Apparently snap updated openjdk somewhere along the line. I tried to snap revert but it won't let me go back past early 19. Is there any way I can revert back to 18?

Thanks,
Chris Kelly

@cybercat2 It looks as if Java 19 is now supported by Spigot version 1.19.2-3589 or later. Can you try upgrading?

I follow the schedule of the OpenJDK and publish the fully-supported current release to the stable channel on the day it's made available. JDK 19 is backward compatible with software that runs on JDK 18 (and even all the way back to at least JDK 9), so I'm not sure why Minecraft Spigot is even checking the Java version.
