Hello,
A follow-up, some lint warnings are now enabled:

At least a few more should be turned out before JDK 8 GA!
Thanks,

Hello,
Over the last few months, over on core-libs-dev there have been
various clean up efforts concerning the Java code in the JDK 8 "jdk"
repo, resolving both javac lint and doclint warnings.
With these clean ups in place, I think it is time for selected
categories of javac lint warnings to be enabled during the build under
-Werror. That is, for lint categories that have been scrubbed, the
build should be reconfigured so that reintroducing such a warning is a
build error. (Under the old build, different packages could use
different javac command line options. With the new build, all the Java
code is compiled under the same options so the full build was reduced
to the least restrictive javac lint setting.)
As additional warning categories are resolved, the set of enabled lint
categories could be expanded, potentially including doclint categories
too.
Cheers,
-Joe
