Hi Andrew, Way back when JSR 269 which added the javax.lang.model API was running, we did consider having a "LATEST" enum constant that would be an alias for the most current release. In the end, we decided against this approach and use a pair of "latest" methods on the SourceVersion enum to provide analogous functionality. The use of an enum value in an annotation has to be a compile-time constant, which for enum-typed methods means the enum value has to be referred directly as an enum constant, a final or static final variable is not enough (JLS 9.7.1. Normal Annotations). Therefore, public static final CURRENT_RELEASE = SourceVersion.RELEASE_13; would *not* allow @SupportedSourceVersion(SourceVersion.CURRENT_RELEASE) to be used.

Not a reviewer - looks good anyways - however, I would if some of those constants be refactored to fewer locations?
For example, I see many copies of:
@SupportedSourceVersion(SourceVersion.RELEASE_13)
Perhaps if you declare SourceVersion as:
RELEASE_12, RELEASE_13, CURRENT_RELEASE = RELEASE_13;
Then you could use:
@SupportedSourceVersion(SourceVersion.CURRENT_RELEASE)
Thanks,
-Andrew

Hello,
With the start of JDK 13 around the corner, please review the core libs portions of:
JDK-8205626: Start of release updates for JDK 13 http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~darcy/jdk13-fork.2
[snip]
Looks okay (and the same as what we reviewed on build-dev yesterday?).
Yes, same changes as on build-dev (other than the update of several more TEST.ROOT files to require jtreg 4.2 b13 rather than b12.)
I wanted to have a bit more of the testing complete before sending the core libs portion out for the review.
Thanks,
