Hi Eirik,
check the project.properties of the module in question.
if it has:
javac.source=1.8
replace it with:
javac.source=11
javac.target=11
after that you could put this into manifest.mf:
OpenIDE-Module-Java-Dependencies: Java > 11
modules which use nb-javac are a special case, i plan to put that into a
meta issue since that is more complicated and we have to take special
care in CI for that.

Hi, netbeans-dev.
Normally I build NetBeans from sources by just running the command "ant" from
the root of the repo.
While making some improvements to the platform\openide.util.ui\ImageUtilities class, I concluded I
need to use the java.awt.image.MultiResolutionImage class, which only became available in JDK 9.
With a plain "ant" build I get a "cannot find symbol" error when referencing it.
What build option do I need to set to build NetBeans on a newer Java version,
and get access to the Java 9 APIs from the openide.util.ui module?
My JAVA_HOME environment variable is already pointing at Java 11.
(The specific use case here is to make SVG/HiDPI/Retina icons work in the main
menu bar on MacOS, for my NetBeans Platform application. This requires use of
the MultiResolutionImage class.)
