Summary:
envinfo
usesjavac -version
to work out the JDK version number. The doctor command was looking for a semver range of>= 8
but this won't work for JDK 8 as it uses the old style numbering scheme (e.g.1.8.x
not8.x.x
). JDKs 9+ use the new version numbering scheme.Fixes #1255
Test Plan:
On macOS, before applying this PR's changes:
brew install openjdk@8
export JAVA_HOME=$(/usr/libexec/java_home -v 1.8)
javac -version
outputs something likejavac 1.8.0_282
react-native doctor
Observe doctor complains about the JDK version:
Apply changes and run
react-native doctor
again, observe 8 is now correctly detected as supported:Repeat the above steps with JDK 9+ to confirm they're still correctly detected.
