title: BIRT - Java 1.8
body: <p>I was using BIRT together with java 1.6 but recently have updated java to the latest version which is a prerequistie for other applications. Since then BIRT is not working.
  I was using BIRT 4.4.0.v201405191524.
  Is there any possibilty to work BIRT with the java 1.8 version?</p>
