title: Why apache directory studio not supported for latest Java versions?
body: <p>I was using my apache directory studio till morning and unfortunately updated the java version in my laptop to latest version. From the time I updated my Java version Apache directory studio stopped to work.</p>
  
  <p>When I check Apache Directory Studio site</p>

  <p>it was mentioned that Java 7.0 as prerequisite. I dont have the software for Java 7 currently as I upgraded it. Please let me know why is such an ignorance from Apache directory studio to work with only older version and not with newer versions of Java</p>
