  • 1.  Java 21 on IBMi

    Posted Wed June 05, 2024 03:31 PM

    Hello, 

    We are considering upgrading a Java application to Java 21. Is there a place where I can get an estimated date of when it will be available for IBMi? I found this page but it has not been updated . Latest news of Java on IBM i

    Thanks

    I notice that AIX ppc64 version of IBM Semeru JRE and JDK 21 has been available for download for some time now, I hope the Rochester team will be able to deliver it for IBM i soon.

    Dale,

    I submitted an "Idea" for the support of Java 17 on IBM i and IBM delivered.  Add support for Java 17 to IBM i | IBM Power Ideas Portal

    I suggest you submit an idea for the support of Java 21.  

    You might mention these resources in your Idea:

    Semeru Runtimes support (ibm.com)

    Java products and options on IBM i
