Hi,

I am trying to build java9 in mac OS X Sierra (10.12). As per the building.md, we need Xcode 6.3 to be installed to build JDK. But this version of the OS doesn’t seem to support it. So i installed the latest Xcode (8.3).  The error i get when running make is 

“Unable to find <JavaNativeFoundation/JavaNativeFoundation.h>

I tried tweaking the -iframework and -F options to the one that is realistically available in the machine . i.e /APplications/Xcode.app/….., but still no good. 

Any help is much appreciated. 

BR,
Soundararajan
