Yes, it is great to see all the features essential for editing Java in an IDE 
are already part of OpenJDK 17 javac compiler!

If anyone observes a bug while editing Java in the Apache NetBeans IDE, go to 
https://github.com/openjdk/jdk and fix it  there - that's where the javac 
(formerly nb-javac) code lives!

The build scripts are available at https://github.com/JaroslavTulach/nb-javac/ 
- however the Java code comes from https://github.com/openjdk/jdk - the build 
script checks the official OpenJDK repository out and just packages the sources 
into binaries suitable for NetBeans purposes.
