Status of Morphia 3.0 and Java 17 compatibility

[jodyfanning]

I have a project that is currently in the process of migrating to Java 17 (from 11), and which is using Morphia for many of the collections it contains. Morphia 2.x not being Java 17 compatible is a bit of a blocker for that. So now the main question is do we bite the bullet and migrate to using the native driver POJO support, or do we wait until 3.0 would come with Java 17 support? The project likely doesn't use many of the advanced features of Mophia, but of course the move to native driver POJO support means writing codecs for many of the enum types that we use.

So news on what the current state of 3.0 is, or any other thoughts / experiences with Java 17 and MongoDB in general.

2.4.x passes all the tests against Java 17 and 21, for what it's worth. I don't know of any issues regarding those java versions. As for 3.0, it's slowly moving along. I've been focusing on automated upgrades scripts via openrewrite to assist in upgrading and so that's stalled progress in other areas but those scripts are coming along quite nicely and I have a pretty good feel for what needs to be done there. Having those scripts in place gives me some wiggle room to tidy the API a bit more. You can see the current state of the upgrades by following along here: https://github.com/MorphiaOrg/morphia-upgrade-testing. But 3.0 will require Java 17 so it's good you're thinking about that now. I'm heading for some conference travel but I'm hoping to pick up the pace once I'm back.
