Heads up: planning to drop macos support older than 10.12

[Vladimir Kempik]

For one of the next jdk11 updates, an update to the minimally supported macos version is planned.
Right now it’s macos 10.9, the plan is to move to macos 10.12 as minimally supported macos version.
The similar patch was applied to jdk17 about an year ago:
https://git.openjdk.java.net/jdk/commit/53f1b938

The JBS bug - https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8260518

Macos 10.9 through 10.14 are eol, and the oldest machines supported by 10.12 are from 2009/2010.

Best regards, Vladimir
