Any update on this? Is Jasper 6.1 with Java 8 support available yet?

Thanks for the update. We use jasperReports library (set of necessary libraries) integrated into our Java appliations. I had trouble using the 6.0 version it was failing with exception from groovy library when using JAVA8. Will wait for the offical release of 6.1 to try.

Does anyone know the date by which Jasper Report support JAVA 8 officially?

I am getting below stackoverflow when trying jasper compile report. My environment, JAVA8, Jasperreports-6.0.0.jar, groovy-all-2.0.1.jar, itextpdf-5.5.0.jar, itext-pdfa-5.5.0.jar etc. Am I missing anything? >Exception in thread "pool-1-thread-2"

I was able to install the lastest jasper studio as eclipse LUNO as plugin and able to run reports using JAVA8 My next excercise was to inlcude the necessary jasper 6.0.0 libraries and complile and run from JAVA program. ( we have this programs working using very older version on Jasper.). when attempting to using jasper6.0.0 as we want our applicaton to support java8, i am getting "stackoverflowerror" from groovy library.. any idea? i am using jasper-6.0.0.jar and groovy-2.0.1.jar..any idea?

I am also looking for answer for the same. does Jasper6.0.0 work with Java 8?
