Okay...I was trying to rebuild recent master and was reading the readme and remembered that to compile on newer JDKs, the need for a compilation parameter to be passed to the ant build.
In the past I've always had to dig through emails to remember what this parameter was which allowed me to build, However I was wondering if this could be added to the readme.md (maybe with the "Notes" following the build ant context) to provide some additional notes on more advanced build options. "It is possible to compiled with new JDK versions, but this requires inclusion of the ' -Dpermit.jdk9.builds=true' parameter to be added at buikd time" I was also curious if beyond this one parameter, if there might be other similar parameters of interest that could be added (not familiar with all of them but assume there ould be stuff like jdkhome type parameters, etc). Does this sort of change require a jira issue to be raised? Eric Bresie [email protected]
