The street to Java 9: Only critical bugs fixed now

The update is slated for an underlying discharge competitor fabricate today.

With the underlying discharge competitor work for Java 9 now distributed, Oracle has recommended that starting now and into the foreseeable future, just "masterpiece" bugs be settled for the generation Java 9 discharge, which is expected September 21. 

The proposition skimmed for the current week speaks to a further taking care of bug-settling objectives for RDP (Rampdown Phase) 2 of the Java overhaul. The arrangement calls for settling all P1 (Priority 1) bugs basic to the accomplishment of Java Development Kit (JDK) 9. Likewise, developers would decommit from settling any bugs not new in JDK 9 and not basic to the discharge, regardless of the possibility that they had been focused for settling. 

The proposition would concede any P1 bugs new in JDK 9 yet that are either not basic to the discharge or, all things considered, can't be settled in this redesign. Bugs assigned P2 to P5 would be left to future discharges paying little respect to whether they are in item code, tests, or documentation. 

That change may not be as sensational as it initially appears: A present rundown of bugs refered to just a single bug as of Thursday, a P1 bug relating to a heap that sidesteps the arraycopy technique having the wrong memory state.
