Fails to build with OpenJDK 11

Open kloetzl opened this issue 5 years ago • 2 comments

Hi,

Thanks for releasing 1.4.4. Currently I am trying to package the new version for Debian. Unfortunately, Debian recently switched to OpenJDK 11 as its default java version. This prevents figtree from building, as javax.activation is no longer available. I fear, there may be more issues.

Any help would be appreciated.

Best, Fabian

The fix is simple, just include libactivation-java as a new dependency. You might want to add that to the classpath.

Thanks. I will do that as soon as I am back.
