Fantastic! Thanks for working on this. > - big one: current nb-javac has ct.sym of JDK 24 in it. This got > automatically fixed by actually building the upstream jdk since that is > where it's from. I'm curious why this approach, as opposed to either forcing the build to be done on the matching JDK; or downloading, extracting and caching the file from an upstream built JDK? Possibly an unnecessary extra layer of complexity? Does ct.sym include version info somewhere that can be validated against the build version? Maybe I missed something there already?
