[aspectj-users] Java 9 sun.boot.class.path gone

[Mario Ivankovits <mario@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi!

In latest Java 9 builds the „sun.boot.class.path“ is gone. Due to this, the core java classes can no longer be found by aspectj.

On AspectJs earlyJava9 branch I’ve patched it like this to make that work again.
