Using internal sun classes with javac

问题

Is there a way to disable restrictions of javac 1.6.0_22 that prevent me from using JRE internal classes like sun.awt.event.* ?

I\'m not looking for:

an explanation why it is forbidden.
suggestion to use different classes
suggestion to use reflection
suggestion to use ecj/eclipse

I just want to know if it is possible or not, and if it is then how.

回答1:

I have found the answer myself.

When javac is compiling code it doesn't link against rt.jar by default. Instead it uses special symbol file lib/ct.sym with class stubs.

Surprisingly this file contains many but not all of internal sun classes. In my case one of those more-internal-than-usual classes was sun.awt.event.IgnorePaintEvent.

And the answer to my question is: javac -XDignore.symbol.file

That's what javac uses for compiling rt.jar.

In addition to the answer by @marcin-wisnicki if you're using Maven, note that the compiler plugin will silently drop any -XD flags, unless you also specify <fork>true</fork>: e.g.

<build>
    <plugins>
        <plugin>
            <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
            <artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId>
            <version>3.3</version>
            <configuration>
                <source>1.7</source>
                <target>1.7</target>
                <compilerArgs>
                    <arg>-XDignore.symbol.file</arg>
                </compilerArgs>
                <fork>true</fork>
            </configuration>
            ...

Normally, this only produces a Warning message; e.g.

[javac] /media/disk/opensso2/opensso/products/federation/openfm/source/com/sun/identity/wss/xmlsig/WSSSignatureProvider.java:46: warning: com.sun.org.apache.xpath.internal.XPathAPI is Sun proprietary API and may be removed in a future release
[javac] import com.sun.org.apache.xpath.internal.XPathAPI;

Perhaps you have told the Java compiler to treat warnings as errors.

There's a better solution. First add the option to javac -XDenableSunApiLintControl and then use @SupressWarnings("sunapi") in your code.
