Is Java 1.8.0_73 supported for PRPC 7.1.9? Or should we use Java 7?

I am running into this error in SMA and I have found online articles linking it to a Java 8 error:
Compilation of JSP File '/jsp/services2/DisplayNodes.jsp' failed:

java 1.8 should be supported for 7.1.9. What environment are you running? e.g., app server (tomcat? version?). I have a environment running java 1.8.0_45, it works fine. Let me check if this is specific to your jdk version and report back.

confirmed, no obvious issue with java 1.8.0_73. Make sure you are running the prsysmgmt.war from 7.1.9 archive directory. I assume in your environment, you saw the issue right away when clicking the node in SMA, right?

This is on web logic. I don't even get to select a node. It happens right away when loading SMA.
Thanks for confirming the Java version is compatible. I am not sure what is causing this issue.

this is likely specific to weblogic env. What version of weblogic are you running? Make sure that version does support java 1.8 from oracle.

just checked the platform guide: https://collaborate.pega.com/discussion/prpc-5x-6x-platform-support-guide-easy-find. For Weblogic, it appears that only jdk 1.7 is listed officially supported. My test is on tomcat8 with oracle jdk 1.8.
