    Description

      As a result of the fix for JDK-8074763 we can no longer compile FX 9-dev using JDK 9 as the boot JDK. We currently use JDK 8u40 as our boot JDK, so our production builds are not affected. However, Swing / FX drag and drop will likely fail at runtime with a NoSuchMethodError as a result of this.

      Here is the error:

      $ java -version
      java version "1.9.0-ea"

      Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 1.9.0-ea-b77, mixed mode)

      $ gradle
