Hello,
I'm hereby forwarding Debian bug
https://bugs.debian.org/873219
Unfortunately electric 9.07 fails to build from source with Java 9 now
due to some changes to generics in certain Swing classes. The error
message is:
[javac]
/build/electric-9.07+dfsg/com/sun/electric/tool/user/ui/JobTree.java:58:
error: incompatible types: Vector<JobTreeNode> cannot be converted to
Vector<TreeNode>
[javac] children = jobNodes;
This is probably a bug in OpenJDK 9 and there were some discussions on
the OpenJDK mailing list three years ago:
http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/jdk9-dev/2014-September/001295.html
It is unlikely this behavior will change with Java 9. It would be great
if there was a way to work around this issue because falling back to
Java 8 won't be possible for us.
Regards,
Markus
