is there a good way to enforce a certain jdk version for building a gradle project?

This code might be helpful

Thanks for the shout out :slightly_smiling_face:
That will ensure that your java home is the same, but if you want to ensure that all your builds use java8 you can try this: <https://github.com/gradle/android-cache-fix-gradle-plugin/blob/master/build.gradle#L121>

<@UJS42NC3Y> do you use the gradle doctor in your build? :smile:

i’d like to require 11+ or even easier lock it down further

what are you trying to lock down? out of curiousity?

we import `jdk.jfr` package in our code which is only part of JDK 11+

and this is  not possible to express as a gradle dependency afaik, but its a dependency on JDK internal classes

so I want to ensure people are guided in the right direction when building. It’s in the README but still

the sample i sent should be exactly what you need!
