Processing internally used the Eclipse ecj compiler:
The following code and command can reproduce the issue in combination with JDK
8 b119:
$ cat HelloWorld.java
import java.util.HashMap;
public class HelloWorld {
public static void main(String[] args) {
System.out.println("Hello World!");
}
}
#download the eclipse ecj version used internally by processing.
wget https://github.com/processing/processing/raw/master/java/mode/ecj.jar
tar zxvf jdk-8-ea-bin-b119-linux-i586-05_dec_2013.tar.gz
./jdk1.8.0/bin/java -jar ecj.jar -source 1.6 -classpath . -nowarn
HelloWorld.java
Annotation processing got disabled, since it requires a 1.6 compliant JVM
----------
1. ERROR in HelloWorld.java (at line 1)
import java.util.HashMap;
^
The type java.util.Map$Entry cannot be resolved. It is indirectly referenced
from required .class files
----------
1 problem (1 error)
# The compilation succeed if ecj.jar is invoked without the -source 1.6
argument:
./jdk1.8.0/bin/java -jar ecj.jar -classpath . -nowarn HelloWorld.java
./jdk1.8.0/bin/java HelloWorld
Hello World!
https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8024935 - compilation succeeds in
java7 but fails in java8
I do not have any account at bugs.openjdk.java.net that I can use to update
this bug,
feel free to attach the information above to the bug.
