Hi Erik,

The problem is that the compiler doesn’t issue a warning in this case, but 
rather a type-mismatch error on NSEventMask, so I can’t turn it off. NSUInteger 
was being used as an enum, so Apple changed to using a real enum in 10.12 as a 
matter of code hygiene. The new code in NSApplicationAWT.m is doing the right 
thing by checking MAC_OS_X_VERSION_MAX_ALLOWED.

What particular problem were you trying to solve? Production, QA and JPRT 
builds and test runs are done on the oldest supported OSX version, so any use 
of newer features should be detected very early in the test process. 
Restricting builds to old OSX versions means that engineers who keep their 
development boxes up to date (which they should: security, etc.) can’t use them 
to do JDK development.
That's not exactly true. Apple is making it very hard to stay on older versions of the OS compared to other OS vendors. For this reason we are not always able to stay on a particular version for Macosx in particular. We also in general try to avoid having to fill our build servers/environments with just the oldest OSes, because older OSes are harder to maintain and less convenient to work with. So instead, we try to maintain working build environments on newer OSes that produce binaries that are compatible with the oldest we support. So, at least from Oracle's perspective, we prefer if builds on different OS versions produce equivalent binaries when possible. We certainly don't want to prevent building on newer OS/compilers.

If this can't be worked around at the source level, then perhaps we need to consider hiding this macro definition behind a configure option that we can use internally. I would be open to that. Something like --with-macosx-version-min=10.7 which configure could then translate to the combination of options currently used. That way, most openjdk developers/builders would not need to suffer this Oracle requirement.

Thanks,

     Hello,
I do not agree to removing that macro. I added those options to help
     guarantee that a build made on a newer version of macosx would still run
     on the oldest version currently supported. The macro is not mainly meant
     to be used in our code, but is picked up by system headers to cause an
     error if any features newer than 10.7 are used. It may be that we should
     bump it to a newer version of macosx in JDK 10, but certainly not to 10.12.
It seems to me that we instead need to ignore the particular warning for
     this case.
