I tested this beta build, but I don't see much difference yet. It still cannot access the base module classes it seems (errors like: "java.lang.Throwable cannot be resolved to a type", that cannot be normal). Also, there's an issue with the Java 9 constant that is used in Tomcat, CompilerOptions.VERSION_1_9 -> CompilerOptions.VERSION_9. This creates a compatibility problem where the new vs old build cannot be drop in replacements. Rémy
