Is there any plugins available to use jdk 1.7 in websphere 8.0. Am aware that it won't support jdk1.7. But still want to use. Any help would be appreciated.
No, you must use Java 1.6 with WebSphere Application Server 8.0. If you need to use Java 1.7, simply upgrade the application server to version 8.5 where the use of jdk 1.7 is supported.

I am planning to upgrade JDk version from 1.6(Java6) to 1.7 (Java 7)for our CORBA Services. Can someone suggest if there would be any compatibility issue with latest java version or any known limitations using old CORBA applications with new java versions? Thanks.
I am looking at the latest websphere liberty 8.5.5.7 full platform (https://developer.ibm.com/wasdev/downloads/liberty-profile-using-non-eclipse-environments/) and I wonder if it can run oracle java 8? I see on the download page that ibms java 8 only supports the web profile but I don't care if i run a jdk from oracle or ibm as long as it is version 8.
Historically websphere has demanded ibms jdk on linux and solaris.
I have search ibms site but not found any answer.
Yes we support running Liberty on non-IBM JVMs, including those from Oracle. As for the downloads from IBM that come bundled with Java 8 you can use that with more than the web profile (you can use the installUtility to download and install the full Java EE 7 platform onto the web profile install).
We are upgrading our application java platform to latest stable one and we are using Jboss 6 AS.
Is Oracle JDK8 a supported platform for JBoss 6 AS ?
No. Its not going to work. JBoss AS 6 and 7 are not compatible with Oracle JDK 1.8. You need to download WildFly 10 in order to work with JDK 1.8.
WildFly is formerly knows as JBoss AS
i think no
JBoss AS7 Supported with JDK8 | JBoss Developer

We are upgrading our application and if we use Sun JDK on local it works and its failing on DEV box. we have IBM jdk on our DEV box. What is the SUN equivalent JDK that Websphere 7 has?
WebSphere 7 supports Java6 and JEE5.
However, it requires Java versions shipped with WebSphere itself. (Most are IBM's own Java SDKs, although I think the Solaris version of WebSphere might ship with Oracle's Java.)
I've been asked to get a web application running in WebSphere using RAD 8.0.1, which isn't my usual app.server or development environment.
I'm starting off simple, using the default Ajax Test Server, but from what I can see, the default for a Dynamic Web Application is Servlets 2.5. Is there something buried in the twisty little maze of config dialogs to set it to Servlets 3.0, or must I handle that manually?
IBM Websphere Application Server 8.0 supports Servlet 3.0
IBM Websphere Application Server versions 7.0 and 6.1 do not support it.
So you need to use version 8.0. If you are using Websphere Portal, then you have a problem.
IBM Websphere Portal runs on same version Application Server (though you can for instance run Portal 6.1 on WAS 7 - I ran into some problems with AJAX though). So you might be able to get Portal 7 to run on WAS 8. It's the only way in the short term.
What is the run-time environment that you use?
WebSphere 7.x does not support Servlets 3.0 and it would be supported only by WebSphere 8.0.
WebSphere 8.0 is still in beta.
Interestingly, wikipedia is a good site for the list of supported APIs by WAS.

I don't have a RAD 8 handy with me to assist but i would check and ensure that the run-time associated with the project does support Java EE 6 (and Servlets 3.0)

Websphere Application Server 7 can support servlets 3.0 if you installed Fix Pack 7.0.0.37 or later.
That shall upgrade JDK from 1.5.x to 1.6.x. Also you need to install WebSphere Application Server V7 Feature Pack for Web 2.0 and Mobile V1.1
