## Official Eclipse Support for Java 8

19.03.2014 · [Christian Ullenboom](https://tutego.de/blog/javainsel/author/admin/)

So ist zu lesen unter [https://dev.eclipse.org/mhonarc/lists/eclipse.org-committers/msg00948.html](https://dev.eclipse.org/mhonarc/lists/eclipse.org-committers/msg00948.html "https://dev.eclipse.org/mhonarc/lists/eclipse.org-committers/msg00948.html"):

The Eclipse top-level project is very proud to announce official support for [Java™ 8](http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/overview/index.html). Starting with [I20140318-0830](http://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/downloads/drops4/I20140318-0830/) all Luna (4.4) builds contain the Eclipse support for Java™ 8. For Kepler SR2 (4.3.2) a [feature patch](https://wiki.eclipse.org/JDT/Eclipse_Java_8_Support_For_Kepler) is available. For future builds visit our [downloads page](http://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/downloads/). The Java™ 8 support contains the following: – Eclipse compiler implements all the new Java™ 8 language enhancements. – Significant features, like Search and Refactoring, have been updated to support Java™ 8. – Quick Assist and Clean Up to migrate anonymous class creations to lambda expressions and back. – New formatter options for lambdas. Note that PDE API Tools has not yet adopted the new language constructs. This will be completed in the final Luna release. **Big thanks to everyone who worked on this effort!**![](https://dev.eclipse.org/mhonarc/lists/eclipse.org-committers/jpgYRJx6TpLoH.jpg)
