[hibernate-dev] JDK 9 EA Build 155 is available on java.net

[Guillaume Smet]

Hello Rory,

I just tried updating our build of Hibernate Validator to b156 and I
discovered this one: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8173604 .

I was surprised to see the module renaming from java.annotations.common to
java.xml.ws.annotation considering this module contains the @Generated
annotation, which is pretty... mmmh... common and not really related to XML
or webservices. I also fail to see how @PostConstruct, @PreDestroy or
@Resource are related to XML or webservices in any way.

By the way, I think it's going to be a breaking change for a lot of
projects. See
https://github.com/ops4j/org.ops4j.pax.exam2/blob/master/containers/pax-exam-container-karaf/src/main/java/org/ops4j/pax/exam/karaf/container/internal/runner/KarafJavaRunner.java#L63
for instance.

Could you explain us the rationale of this renaming? It's looks pretty far
fetched from here.

Thanks!
