Plugin Updates

  • FlexDeploy 7.0 plugins will not work with previous versions of FlexDeploy. In general, first two letters of application (e.g. 7.0) and plugin version should match for compatibility.

  • The Apigee, Maven, and XPath plugins now require Java 8, this decision was made to resolve security vulnerabilities. Flexagon understands that many customers are forced into using older Java versions by their legacy software, and will attempt to maintain Java 7 compatibility for the near future, as well as Java 6 compatibility for the EBS plugin. We also understand that other customers need to run on newer Java versions. Continue to watch the Plugin Java requirements page for updates. We welcome support tickets for concerns with Java version support.
