h2. 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 
 * "New and Noteworthy 4.7.1a":https://www.eclipse.org/eclipse/news/4.7.1a/ 
 * "JDT Core Git":https://git.eclipse.org/c/gerrit/jdt/eclipse.jdt.core.git/ 
 * "JDT Core main":https://www.eclipse.org/jdt/core/dev.php 
 * "Oxygen help":http://help.eclipse.org/oxygen/index.jsp 

 We support a new LangLevel.JAVA9 and derive all compiler settings accordingly. 

 h2. Supporting the Module System 

 The Java 9 module system provides for module level package exports and cross-module dependencies. As such it does not contradict the class loading delegation model but rather adds a dimension to it: Layers 

 Supporting the Java 9 module system from Z2 means: 

 * A Java Component consists now of up to three layers, one for API, one for impl, one for test. 
 * All other module declaration business is out of scope for the Z2 runtime but rather purely development oriented business.
