在将jnlp从openjdk 8迁移到openjdk 9时，JarIndexAccess无法访问类jdk.internal.util.jar.JarIndex（在java.base模块中）

Question

We have below jnlp

Above jnlp working properly with oracle jdk 8. Now we are migrating to openjdk 9 and use icetea web to open the jnlp file on client side. Added j2se version="9+" with some java-args but faces below issues as sun/misc/JarIndex Class not found. I know that this class has been removed from openjdk 9 . So is it we need to use any alternate or do we have any workaround ?

Answer 1

JarIndex was moved in Java 9 to internal package dk.internal.util.jar.JarIndex

-import sun.misc.JarIndex;

+import jdk.internal.util.jar.JarIndex;

Due to JEP 260

sun.misc.JarIndex, and its accompanying InvalidJarIndexException, are not "Critical APIs", as defined by JEP 260, so they should be moved out of sun.misc and placed into a more appropriate package where they can be encapsulated.
