Hi there,
We are doing some early testing with JDK 9 and have discovered that the changes
made to java.sql.DriverManager back in November/December have introduced an
incompatibility with our JDBC driver (that we have used unchanged since Java 6)
when it is pre-loaded with Class.forName (as recommended by Tomcat and
specified as being harmless in the JavaDoc). We filed a bug report but it got
an incident ID JI-9019539 and then disappeared into a black hole.
There does appear to be an issue with those changes. I've located the
incident and moved it to the JDK project as JDK-8076639 [1].
