JDK 9 b49 : Missing Libraries

[Richard Warburton]

Hi,

With Jigsaw (new modularity implementation for Java -
> http://openjdk.java.net/projects/jigsaw/) the JDK and JRE binaries are no
> longer the same.  IDEs (as of yet) are not able to use JDK 9 correctly.  I
> think Netbeans is hoping to provide the first support around late March.

I've been using intellij to work with JDK9. You have two choices:

1. Use the EAP for the 14.1 release - which already has the fix in.
2. Workaround by touching $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/rt.jar
