With the recent fixes in JDK-8241310, JDK-8237746 and JDK-8241073, and the upcoming fixes to remove the deprecated nashorn and jdk.rmi, the JDK build is very close to producing no warnings when compiling the Java classes.
The one remaining sinner is jdk.hotspot.agent. Most of the warnings here are turned off, but unchecked and deprecation cannot be completely silenced.
Since the poor agent does not seem to receive much love nowadays, I took it upon myself to fix these warnings, so we can finally get a quiet build.
I started to address the unchecked warnings. Unfortunately, this was a much bigger task than I anticipated. I had to generify most of the module. On the plus side, the code is so much better now. And most of the changes were trivial, just tedious.
There are a few places were I'm not entirely happy with the current solution, which at least merits some discussion.
