Description

Description

The Quarks version we currently used only supports up to Java 21 bytecode. We can compile with Java 25. There may also need to be some changes in our source to update including changes from javax to jakarta namespaces. The quarkus cli has upgrade tooling to help make changes to the source code.

We currently have some common dependencies defined in the bom folder which are used for core and cli and this may be a problem as we are not yet ready to update core to jakarta versions that require Tomcat 10. We may need to decouple CLI a bit from core, which may not be a bad thing.

Research direction

Start by reviewing the common dependencies in the bom folder and how they are consumed by core and cli. Check the Quarkus CLI upgrade tooling and identify the Java 25 and javax-to-jakarta migration requirements. Done should be defined as a stable Quarkus-based CLI that supports Java 25 without forcing incompatible core dependencies.
