Requirements

This page describes the required tools and their versions to use ScalarDL correctly.

Client SDK​

Because ScalarDL is written in Java, the easiest way to interact with ScalarDL is to use the Java client SDK.

Java​

The following Java Development Kits (JDKs) are verified and supported:

warning

Since ScalarDL is built with JDK 8, contracts must be a JDK 8–compatible binary. If you use a version other than JDK 8, you must configure your build tool to build the JDK 8–compatible binary. There are several ways to specify binary compatibility, including using the --release 8 option for javac or setting Gradle or Maven configurations to use the JDK 8 toolchain. The following shows the configuration for Gradle:

java {
    toolchain {
        languageVersion.set(JavaLanguageVersion.of(8))
    }
}

For more details about the Gradle and Maven configurations, see Toolchains for JVM projects for Gradle and Guide to Using Toolchains for Maven.

Other languages​

ScalarDL uses gRPC, so you can create your own client by using the generated clients of your preferred languages.
