Notice : abs won't compile with jdk9

Just a notice to avoid losing time: abs 5 won’t compile with jdk9. Jdk9 is now the default in Ubuntu 18.04.
So install Jdk8, and update-java-alternatives…

Yes jdk 8 is the java version to use (extended public updates for jdk8 until at least January 2019). jdk9 has already reached end of life (March 2018) and jdk10 public support will end next September. So I think we will go to jdk11 directly (next planned LTS release).
I’ll let you know when I have details about it.

Old thread, but…

I just had a problem after upgrading “default-jdk” in Ubuntu 18.04LTS: it installed openjdk11 instead of openjdk8.
I just had to update-java-alternatives -s java-1.8.0-openjdk-amd64, but…

what is the current status of jdk 11 support with ADK / ABS ?
