Hi all,

I cannot build locally today, I see

IMHO all these should be updated to 1.6+. Anything older than that should be out of question especially considering that Java 11 is supposed to drop even 1.6.  The fact that there is no OSS full featured pre 1.6 JVM makes it more than obvious for OSS projects to me.

Jan, do you agree with bumping to Java 1.6+ so compiling with latest Java (10 at time of writing is working well) and working with latest LTS Java (8 at time of writing).

I'm using openjdk 9 here.

Are there some restriction about which JDK should be used in order to built Tycho? Or is there anything else I need to tweak?
