Since the JVM is backward compatible, it is usually safe to use a newer JVM to *run* your code compiled by the Scala compiler for older JVM versions. There are notable exceptions with experimental/unsafe features, and the introduction of the module system in Java 9. The Scala compiler does usually need updates to run properly on newer versions of the JVM, so make sure to use the appropriate JVM when compiling your code. -We try to provide experimental support for running the Scala compiler on LTS versions of Java ("Long Term Support"; see http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/eol-135779.html), and to the extent possible will include the current LTS Java version in our CI matrix and the community build. We will not, a priori, consider non-LTS Java versions. Compiler bugs related to Java versions other than the supported one (Java 8), will be scheduled with lower priority, and will not be considered release blockers. Lightbend does offer commercial support for faster resolution of issues like this. +We try to provide experimental support for running the Scala compiler on LTS versions of Java ("Long Term Support"; see ), and to the extent possible will include the current LTS Java version in our CI matrix and the community build.

Compiler bugs related to Java versions other than the supported one (Java 8), will be scheduled with lower priority, and will not be considered release blockers. Lightbend does offer commercial support for faster resolution of issues like this. Scala code compiled on Java 8 should run without problems in later JVMs, and we will give higher priority to bugs that break this property. For example, in the 2.13.x series we intend to provide support for JPMS module access checks, to allow ensuring your code won't incur `LinkageErrors` due to module access violations.
