My Oracle 12c instances javavm point to the jdk1.6. I see a path to upgrade to jdk1.7 - under $ORACLE_HOME/javavm/jdk there is a jdk7 directory installed. We would like to move all of our java to jdk1.8. My current problem is that my java stored procedure fails to resolve when I load a jdk1.8 compiled .jar file. I see an incompatible version error which I am guessing is the jdk6 javavm trying to run the jdk8 .jar.
Is there a path to upgrade the Oracle JAVAVM to jdk 8?
