Description Shane Clarke CLA 2017-10-03 05:24:34 EDT 
Selecting a CXF runtime with Java 9 selected as the default workspace JRE will not work.

The selection runs a org.apache.cxf.tools.wsdlto.WSDLToJava command with a -v arg in the background to determine the version number.

This command will fail when run with Java 9 unless --add-modules=java.se.ee
or --add-modules=ALL-SYSTEM has been specified.

Workaround is to add it to the default vm arguments of the Java 9 install.

The CXF 2.x tooling only supports CXF 2.x and requires Java 7 to run.

#476128 open to look at possibility of providing CXF 3.x which would run on Java 8. No documented support for Java 9 yet.
