Re: [ jEdit-users ] jedit 5.6.0 does not run on java11

[Pedro C. <ped...@gm...>]

I think I have a way around the issue and make jedit work ..
I used a VM with ubuntu 18 and java 11 installed.  I booted the vm,
installed jedit and it all worked ... but jeditwas version 5.5.0 ...
So I installed jedit version 5.5.0 and ... it works ok out of the box
without plugins.
Some plugins I have on the old .jedit folder are making jedit crash I
will investigate the issue and suppress those plugins manually.
