L2p Service Migration v0.7 to v1.1.1

This page is currently work in progress.

Java 14

Starting from version 1.1.0, las2peer is compatible with Java 14. You may need to adjust the version of java used during the build process in your build files. Some services may also contain a check for the used Java version that needs to be adjusted. Besides that, your CI may also need to be updated: For Travis and Docker the version of the used JDK needs to be adjusted to 14. There also might be functionalities that were supported in Java 8, but are not supported/working in Java 14 anymore, but which are used by your service. Since this is very service-specific and may vary from service to service, we cannot give instructions on this step and it is also recommended to test your service in detail after upgrading to Java 14.

Gradle

With the release of las2peer v1.1.1 we decided to replace ant by Gradle for the build process. We also did this for the template project. If you want to migrate your service to Gradle as well, feel free to use the Gradle migration guide as a help. Please note: It is not necessary to use Gradle instead of ant, your service should still be working.
