Java 7 support about etcd4j HOT 3 CLOSED

I was aware when I created the project that Java 8 would be a bit too new, but I was using it in my newer java 8 based project so could allow myself to use it. I am open to port it back to Java 7.
(I will not port it back to Java 6 and will consider Java 7 the minimum since Java 6 is not supported by Oracle anymore)

Besides using Lambdas which you seem to have converted I began using Java 8 to use the newer java.time time constructs. But probably a normal java.util.Date will suffice for now.

I have created a pull request and made the merge with a new branch called feature-java-7. I will look into the java.time transition. Thanks for the work!

I will close this issue when it is done and merged into master.

nice, thank you very much!

I have done the java.time conversion. It lost its nanosecond precision. (Would need to include another library to regain it in Java 7) But I think the precision for the expiration date is not that critical.

0.4.6 has been released with Java 7 support. Thanks for doing the main bit of conversion!
