JDK9 with drools: upgrade ECJ to be jdk 9 compatible and remove "java native compiler" mvn profile workaround ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: DROOLS-1169 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/DROOLS-1169 Project: Drools Issue Type: Bug Components: core engine Reporter: Geoffrey De Smet Assignee: Petr Široký Labels: java9 Fix For: 7.5.0.Final The code below runs perfectly with OpenJDK 8 (and even 6 and 7). To reproduce, use JDK 9 ( https://jdk9.java.net/download/ ) and in optaplanner-core, run XStreamXmlSolverFactoryTest [1] (or mostly any other test that builds a DRL file) to get this error: {code} 15:56:40.229 [main] ERROR o.d.c.k.b.impl.AbstractKieModule - Unable to build KieBaseModel:defaultKieBase Rule Compilation error : [Rule name='Conflict'] org/optaplanner/core/api/solver/Rule_Conflict903142795.java (1:0) : The type java.lang.Object cannot be resolved.

This might be a JDK 9 upstream issue. Note: don't build drools with OpenJDK9 as that will fail sooner :) [1] https://github.com/droolsjbpm/optaplanner/blob/master/optaplanner-core/sr...
