JDK 9 Early Access with Project Jigsaw build b36 is available on java.net
by Rory O'Donnell Oracle, Dublin Ireland
Hi Jason/Tomaz,
JDK 9 Early Access with Project Jigsaw build b36 is available on
java.net [1]
The goal of Project Jigsaw [2] is to design and implement a standard
module system for the Java SE Platform,
and to apply that system to the Platform itself and to the JDK.
As described in JEP 220 [3], this build provides a new runtime image
structure. For example, this new runtime
image does not install an rt.jar file or a tools.jar file.
Please refer to Project Jigsaw's updated project pages [2] & [4] and
Mark Reinhold's announcement email [5]
for further details.
We are very interested in your experiences testing this build. Comments,
questions, and suggestions are
welcome on the jigsaw-dev mailing list or else submit bug reports via
bugs.java.com.
Note: If you haven’t already subscribed to that mailing list then please
do so first, otherwise
your message will be discarded as spam.
