Switching master to the earlyJava9 branch. This merge
with strategy=ours should give us a common root so that
anyone working from master will be able to absorb the change
easily.
The version handling in LangUtil has been overhauled
to cope better with post 1.8 releases (JDK9 and JDK10 or 18.3
or whatever they call it). As part of this moved
to treating JDK9 as '9' rather than '1.9'. Also removed
duplicate version processing logic and had that defer to
the one place in LangUtil where we now deal with it.
Includes some generics tidyup in ajdoc. More ajdoc work
is necessary for Java10 because it removes the standard doclet
(old style). However trying to invoke the internal Javadoc
handler in Java10 is failing due to module visibility rules.
Adjust how classpath entries manipulated for Java9 support
Prior to this AspectJ would discard ignore the ClasspathEntry
objects built by JDT and just work with the classpath as a string,
driving the JDT FileSystem to rebuild classpath entries again at
a later date using the string. This is more complex in Java9 because
the string representation was losing whether some entries came in
via modulepath. ClasspathEntry construction for modulepath entries
is non trivial (since the module-info must be processed).
The new version will cache some of the ClasspathEntry objects (those
built for modulepaths) and do more work on the AspectJ side building
classpath entries in general. It now passes these entries to a
different FileSystem entry point rather than the entry point that
takes a string path.
Multiple changes here:
- annotation unpacking is smarter and if it only needs runtime
retention annotations it uses reflection and doesn't unpack the
bytes to discover class level retention annotations.
- Reflection worlds are shared if for the same classloader.
Took the code from the patch submitted by Mario Ivankovits
in bug 520597 and made some improvements to make (hopefully)
better use of memory. Some basic tests added.
