Re: pvaccess and Java 9 Re: PVA Java status

As Kunal mentioned, Corba is marked for removal.

I was just talking with Dylan, and he mentioned Corba will be removed in Java 11 (which is out in 6 months).

I thought I would share the date.

Thank you!

Looks like that java.corba is still there, but by default not used.
For the time being, Java 9 can execute the pvAccessJava code when you add

    --add-modules=java.corba

to the java command line to add that module back in.
