Oracle will end support for Java 7 in April, and we will update the Gemini Java applications to Java 8 later this year. This includes the Phase I Tool (PIT), the Observing Tool (OT), and the Queue Planning Tool (QPT). We plan to update the 2015B versions of the OT and QPT in June, and the 2016A version of the PIT in September.
Java 8 is supported under:
- Linux (32- and 64-bit)
- Mac OS X 10.8.3+ (Mountain Lion, Mavericks, and Yosemite)
- Windows Vista, 7, 8, and Server 2008/2012
Unsupported systems will not be able to run the aforementioned Gemini Java applications.
