Will THREDDS work on Java8/Tomcat 8?
I notice that on THREDDS Installation
Tutorial:http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/thredds/current/tds/tutorial/GettingStarted.html
recommends Java 7/Tomcat 7.
On the ERDDAP Installation
instructions,http://coastwatch.pfeg.noaa.gov/erddap/download/setup.html
it says "1.8 is STRONGLY RECOMMENDED, because Java 1.7 will reach its
end-of-life in April 2015".
-------------
Yes, it will work on Java 8, although it does not (yet) require it. We
are transitioning to Java 8 here at Unidata, and I agree with ERDAP's
reccomendation.
