No, we don't. But they were still visible to javac. But that’s fixed already in our build (we removed the class reference and we changed the build in Java 9, see below)! Please note: I changed the Lucene/Solr build to now use "-release" if it detects Java 9 (very easy with Apache Ant). Elasticsearch is still investiagting how to do this with Gradle... :( https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-7292 Uwe
