InterForm400 and V7R4
Customers are asking about InterForm400/InterExcel400 and upgrade to OS400 version V7R4, so the question is what to consider before an upgrade?
A potential problem with OS400 V7R4 is, that Java 1.6 and Java 1.7 are no longer supported with this new version (currently only Java 1.8 is supported on V7R4). If you want to run the software, that requires Java, then you need to ensure, that the software can run on Java 1.8 prior to an upgrade of OS400.
The general recommendation is to upgrade our software to the latest official version prior to the OS400 upgrade.
