Jacques Le Roux commented on OFBIZ-9226:
----------------------------------------
We had a discussion with Taher on HipChat. Here is the most relevant part
This article explains things in detail
[With Java 9 comes Project Jigsaw - a modularization of the JDK - which will break existing code. An overview over the planned changes lets you see whether yours is affected.|
http://blog.codefx.org/java/dev/how-java-9-and-project-jigsaw-may-break-your-code/]
but as mentionned Taher
bq. Unless we depend on some old sun.* in our framework we'll be fine
I checked:
{code}
Mostly related to email handling
BlogRssServices
EmailServices
RomeEventHandler
Indirectly OFBizActiveDirectoryAuthenticationHandler & OFBizLdapAuthenticationHandler (used in context)
To be checked because I'm unsure after reading
http://blog.codefx.org/java/dev/how-java-9-and-project-jigsaw-may-break-your-code/#Internal-APIs (I did not check @jdk.Exported annotation in "sun" imported packages)
{code}
Taher said
bq. Well I don't think any of the dependencies in the classes I saw are internal. com.sun.mail is hardly internal.
I agreed
{code}
Yes, I think so, same for com.sun.syndication
for com.sun.jndi.ldap in ldap component, it's only indirect
/code env.put(Context.INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY,"com.sun.jndi.ldap.LdapCtxFactory");
Anyway we just need to try
{code}
Still on the radar but not a priority...
> Check that OFBiz runs and compile with Oracle JDK 9 (Java 9)
