Research direction

Start by locating the example projects and their Java version and build configuration. Check which examples currently target Java 8 and determine how Java 21 support should apply across them. Done means the requested examples run successfully on Java 21, with the supported scope documented or demonstrated.

Description

Hi @filiphr,

I would ask is it possible to update examples or create a new set which run on java 21.
We all love java 8 but it is a bit old. :)

If needed I can offer some time to support this operation, just I don't know which would be the best way.

Thank you,
Mihaly
