B4J Question Java 8

[dilettante]

I hope this isn't a duplicate, but if it is let me know.

The B4J page https://www.b4x.com/b4j.html still suggests Java 7, but Oracle is telling people to get rid of old versions if possible.

What's the real story today?

Perhaps the FAQs there could be updated to reflect the question of what JRE, SDK, and tools are required for B4J development and what JRE is required for finished programs at runtime?


This was prompted by Oracle Ending Java 7 Updates

You can use either Java 7 or 8. I will update the page to point to Java 8.
