Java 21 support
Does IRIS for Health support Java 21?
Comments
It's supported, in theory:
https://docs.intersystems.com/irislatest/csp/docbook/DocBook.UI.Page.cl…
But it depends of your IRIS version. For previous versions only 8 and 11 were supported.
We're currently on version 2023.1.3 and plan to upgrade to a version of 2024 sometime in 2025. Still the links below don't give a definitive answer for either release.
The documentation page for your version is this.
Which we already know. We're planning for next years upgrade hence we need a definitive answer of yes or no for any 2024 version.

The reason we need Java 21 support is we have several components that are based on EnsLib.PEX.BusinessService and written in Java 11. We need to migrate this code to Java 21. Perhaps we will be okay if we don't leverage any Java 21 specific capability, but still wanted to get some reassurance.
