Java 1.9 has a new module system.

Some of the internal objects are not exported.

In particular, we are using jdk.nashorn.internal.objects.NativeArray, which is not exported.

There are other errors:

As of r77111, Ptolemy II now compiles under Java 9.

build.xml.in: javac target now has @ JAVAC_COMPILERARG@ , which gets substituted

configure.in: If we are under Java 9 1) Set @ JAVAC_COMPILERARG@ to so that javax.xml.bind.DatatypeConverter can be found in jjs/HelperBase.java 2) Exclude ptolemy/copernicus/applet/ and ptolemy/media because they use sun internal classes

ptolemy/actor/lib/jjs/HelperBase.java: Exclude jdk.nashorn.internal.objects.NativeArray. This could cause troubles in the future.

ptolemy/actor/lib/jjs/modules/crypto/CryptoHelper.java: Exclude: jdk.nashorn.internal.objects.NativeArray. This could cause troubles in the future

ptolemy/gui/Top.java: Under Mac and Java 9, don't try to add Mac specific menus and bindings. I'll add a bug for this.

[cxbrooks]

Ptolemy II can compile with Java 9. The tests pass.

Closing this.
