Test with Java 9? And not 7? #70

Closed PallHaraldsson closed 6 years ago

I see "It has also been shown to work with OpenJDK flavour of java, versions 7 and 8."

I'm not up-to-speed on all Java 9 changes, I assume it just works, and just needs testing to confirm. Is there anything extra that needs actual programming, to work with?

I see elsewhere support Java 7 and 8 not 6 and 7, so maybe you don't want to drop statement on Java 7..

"has been tested". I'm not sure it needs to be continuously tested but I only see it in appveyor only for Java 7.

Possibly it should be tested by now for Java 10, or even better Java 11, that's not in "Rampdown Phase One". It should be officially out in September, and earlier for first Release Candidate.

Java 8 is supported at least throughout this year, and Java 9 no longer, so not sure too important to have in CI.]

There are some intriguing stuff, some that may need special testing?!:
