Maven：包com.sun.istack.internal不存在

Question

I have little maven project that uses com.sun.istack.internal.Nullable.
I tried both JDK 9 and 1.8, and still get error about package does not exists. I search for the package and find some: https://mvnrepository.com/search?q=+com.sun.istack but they still not supply necessary one.

The JAVA_HOME:

apshenichnikov@IAS-WS-UX02:~/NetBeansProjects/newlps$ echo $JAVA_HOME
/usr/local/java/jdk1.8.0_121/

And JDK:

apshenichnikov@IAS-WS-UX02:~/NetBeansProjects/newlps$ sudo update-alternatives --config java
There are 4 choices for the alternative java (providing /usr/bin/java).

  Selection    Path                                     Priority   Status
------------------------------------------------------------
  0            /usr/lib/jvm/java-9-oracle/bin/java       1091      auto mode
  1            /usr/lib/jvm/java-8-oracle/jre/bin/java   1081      manual mode
  2            /usr/lib/jvm/java-9-oracle/bin/java       1091      manual mode
* 3            /usr/local/java/jdk1.8.0_121/             1         manual mode
  4            /usr/local/java/jdk1.8.0_121/bin/java     1         manual mode

And I still have compilation exception

Answer 1

Try import import org.jetbrains.annotations.Nullable instead. It has the same you need for @Nullable annotation.

Then add this dependency:

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.jetbrains</groupId>
    <artifactId>annotations</artifactId>
    <version>13.0</version>
</dependency>
