Provider and TF version compatibility

[kumar-dhanagopal]

@rishimahajan , Hi Rishi,

EBusinessSuite/provider.tf has the following code:

terraform {
  required_version = ">= 0.11.8"
}

provider "oci" {
  version = "=3.5.0"
  ...
}

If users upgrade their TF installation to v0.12, then the OCI provider version in this code (locked to 3.5.0) won’t be compatible. Also, I understand that TF v0.12 introduced some changes in the configuration language.

Should the TF code be updated to set the TF version to =0.11.8 (instead of >=0.11.8)?

Or, should we leave the code as is, and ask customers (in the Solutions docs for EBS, JDE, PSFT, & Siebel) to follow the instructions in the TF upgrade guide if they choose to upgrade to TF v0.12?
