Summary: can't use JSR14 on OS X
Initial Comment:
The JSR-14 compiler (either version) doesn't work with DrJava on
OS X. When running that compiler on any source file, the following
error is reported:
Error: try to access field com.sun.tools.javac.v8.JavaCompiler.syms
from class edu.rice.cs.drjava.model.compiler.JSR14Compiler(no
associated file)
We believe this is because the OS X JVM prepends the class path
with its own tools.jar. JSR-14 redefines many of the classes in the
standard javac compiler, but on OS X, the ordinary Java class files
are seen first. When we call JSR-14 methods that don't exist in the
ordinary class files, The JVM signals the error above.
Note: this same functionality on OS X guarrantees that DrJava
always has a 1.3 compiler available, and that the debugger is always
available, but it bites us with JSR-14.
