Hi, I used DocFetcher for several years with Xubuntu and enjoyed it. But now I got Xubuntu 18.04 and DocFetcher refuses to start. Could anybodyplease help me?
This is the terminal output:
sh DocFetcher-GTK3.sh
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.ClassCastException: java.base/jdk.internal.loader.ClassLoaders$AppClassLoader cannot be cast to java.base/java.net.URLClassLoader
at net.sourceforge.docfetcher.util.ClassPathHack.addURL(ClassPathHack.java:32)
at net.sourceforge.docfetcher.util.ClassPathHack.addFile(ClassPathHack.java:28)
at net.sourceforge.docfetcher.util.SwtJarLoader.loadSwtJar(SwtJarLoader.java:46)
at net.sourceforge.docfetcher.Main.main(Main.java:27)
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:

this is likely due to the fact that Java 9 and later Java versions are still not supported by DocFetcher. Try downgrading to Java 8.
