Eclipse GlassFish is an application server, implementing Jakarta EE. This release is corresponding with Jakarta EE 9.1, which is functionally identical to Jakarta EE 9, but runs on JDK 11. GlassFish also runs on JDK 17 and JDK 18ea.
GlassFish 6.2.4 compiles with JDK 11 to JDK 18ea.
GlassFish 6.2.4 brings initial support for JDK 18 (tested until ea29) and adds running several standalone Jakarta EE TCKs directly from the project. An import internal fix is removing a troublesome circular dependency between GlassFish and Jersey.
