When java8 is used as default JDK the application throws exception when you try to access it.
Consider the following sequence:
1. java -version
java version "1.8.0_20"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_20-b26)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.20-b23, mixed mode)
2. git clone https://github.com/komarevsky/spring-petclinic.git
3. cd spring-petclinic
4. mvn clean install
5. mvn tomcat7:run
6. open in browser "http://localhost:9966/petclinic/"
You will see the following:
HTTP Status 500 - Unable to compile class for JSP:

Changing tomcat7-maven-plugin version from 2.0 to 2.2 helps to fix it.
* The old datatables-servlet2 dependency has been removed from the pom.xml
* Some attributes have been renamed (e.g. paginate => pageable)
* Starting from the v0.10.0, all web components (servlet, filter) must be explicitely declared in the web.xml file. That's why I added the following declaration: DandelionFilter, DandelionServlet and DatatablesFilter
* Added a new datatables.properties file in order to disable the asset management brought by Dandelion-Core. This is equivalent to the old cdn=true table attribute
