Jira Server upgrade and dependencies

[Piyal Nanayakkara]

Hi 

Currently I have a Java Project which handles custom Gadgets and running on Jira Server 7.6.4.  In order to keep updated with Jira Server upgrades, we have decided to do a Jira Server upgrade to version 7.6.11 (which I think is the most stable version of Jira Server now - please let me know if there is a more stable version exists as per Atlasssian recommendations)

So, in order to align with this Upgrade, we would like to know whether it is mandatory to change the versions to 7.6.11 of following artifacts/jars in my Java Project which are having the version 7.6.4 now.

- Jira-api.jar  

- Jira-project.jar

- Jira-components.jar

Note:

The version 7.6.4 of Jira-api.jar is located in repo like  http://repo.spring.io/plugins-release/com/atlassian/jira/jira-api/7.6.4/

Also , is there any performance impacts if we keep the above jars  as it is ( I mean no changes to the Java Project) after the upgrade?

Appreciate your response on this.

Regards

Piyal

Jira 7.13.3 is the latest enterprise release which sounds like the best version for you to upgrade to this time around. 

Here are the details about enterprise releases.
