Re: Java Platform Module System

Java Module System JSR/JEP

Hello Mark and experts, It is a bit worrying for us (the Eclipse team) that not much has been said or discussed on the Java Module System itself. As we have just over a year left for the slated GA in 2016, it is about time the spec gets the update, isn't it? Can you please let us know if there i

Retrieving PLATFORM_CLASS_PATH from file manager

Hello experts, With JDK 9, some of JDT Core tests have started failing. The failing tests are in the JSR 199 area, where we test Eclipse's compiler in a mixed mode with Javac's StandardJavaFileManager. standardJavaFileManager.getLocation(StandardLocation.PLATFORM_CLASS_PATH); Until JDK 8, this

Is Caching JrtFileSystem acceptable?

Hello, We recently changed our code in Eclipse to support JRE 8 when loading classes from a Java 9 images (discussion at [1]). The change was to use a JrtFileSystem with a class loader. The file system is then cached and re-used for every request to get something from the JRE 9 images. The code

Eclipse wouldn't load with b118

Hello everyone, People reported that they are not able to run Eclipse with the latest JDK build (b118). This is critical for us and would like to see it resolved as soon as possible. We believe this is caused by change in resolution of EE modules and further discussion can be found here - https:

No jrt-fs.jar in JRE?

I got hold of a recent JRE build (jre-9-ea+118) and noticed two things that were different from the previous JDK builds: 1. There's no jrt-fs.jar. Is this expected? We have use for this for couple of work around - (a) to recognized this is a JDK/JRE 9 and (b) to get the class loader and eventual

JarLoader appears to be holding onto the resource longer than necessary

Hello, Some of our new tests are hitting a case where JAR files appear to be kept open. I am not sure where the issue lies as I can't access some of the source code involved. I am attaching the stack trace at the end of the mail. We obtain the ServiceLoader with the following code where _procLoa
