h1. Java 9 Support
h2. Supporting the Java 9 Language
We integrate ECJ version 4.7.2 from the download link below. Java 9 is fully supported since 4.7.1a ("New and Noteworthy 4.7.1a":https://www.eclipse.org/eclipse/news/4.7.1a/)
* "JDT Core 4.7.2":http://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/downloads/drops4/R-4.7.2-201711300510/#JDTCORE
