Developing a JIRA Plugin and would like to use the QuickReload feature. However I am using the 5.0.x SDK and that uses Java 7. QuickReload appears to need Java 8. Is there a way to get this working for java 7?

I have successfully used QuickReload with Java 7 on JIRA standalone releases as far back as JIRA 6.1 (without regard to the Plugin SDK version in use).
To get this to work, you can download the QuickReload sources, build it as a JAR with atlas-mvn package
, and then upload the JAR as a plugin to JIRA. Then add a quickreload.properties
to the root of your JIRA install directory and everything should work as expected.
(I suppose it's possible that newer versions of quickreload might require a higher version of Java, but this worked fine as of commit a8e25f30fbd.)
