Hey Jens, Oxygen.1 does NOT support Java 9 development out-of-the-box. You have to install the Java9 support from the Eclipse Marketplace into it.
This will change with Oxygen.1a (shipping Oct 11), which will include Java9 support ouf-of-the-box. Hope this helps! Cheers, -Martin > I got some troubles on getting Oxygen.1 ready for Java 9 ...
