Oracle Java SE 7 End of Extended Support (Doc ID 2809708.1)

Last updated on FEBRUARY 20, 2024

Applies to:

Java SE JDK and JRE - Version 7 to 7 [Release 7]
Information in this document applies to any platform.

Details

The Oracle Java SE 7 (Oracle JDK 7 and Oracle JRE 7) Extended Support period ended after July 2022. For more details, search for “Oracle’s Java Releases” in the Oracle Lifetime Support Policy for Oracle Fusion Middleware.

When a product’s Extended Support period ends, the product goes into Sustaining Support mode, as defined by the Oracle Lifetime Support Policy. That is, no further patch updates (no bug fixes, security fixes, or feature implementations) will be provided, and only limited support will be available after the end of the Extended Support period. See Oracle Java SE Support Roadmap for additional information.

With the end of Extended Support for Java SE 7, certain older versions of various Oracle Fusion Middleware products will no longer have a certified JDK available. See the Java SE End of Life and Oracle Fusion Middleware Policy for more information.  Contact the appropriate Oracle Support group if you have more questions.
