Hi,
which version of JSS are you using? Standalone or plugin one?
The RCP standalone version of JSS is based on Eclipse 3.8.2 and there is no support for Java 1.8. 
We are currently bundling the JRE 1.7.0_67.

You can try to use JSS plugin inside for example a recent Luna Eclipse installation. Anyhow I'm not sure how it will work fine: for sure it's not tested. For example, I know there are some open bugs for JasperReports about Java 1.8.

Regards,
Massimo.

Hello Massimo,

thanks for your quick answer.

Currenty I use the JSS Version 6.0.0 with JRE 1.7.0.u25.

When can I expect a standalone version that supports JDK 1.8?

Thanks,

Hi,
there is no plan at the moment to move to 4.x with the standalone version. Transitioning to Eclipse 4 depends on many factors, included the fact that for now an important part of JSS is relying on GEF framework. Unfortunately GEF 4 is far from being production ready.
Therefore I can not give you a precise date. Plus, before there should be the JasperReports support for JDK 1.8: I'm not sure it is like this right now.

Regards,
Massimo.

Hello Massimo,

thanks for your answer.

Then I'll probably have to wait.
