Hi,
The langtools ant build (used for javac development) fails with:
--
[exec]
/usr/local/home/lahvac/src/jdk/jdk10/src/jdk.jshell/share/classes/jdk/internal/jshell/tool/JShellTool.java:3011:
error: cannot find symbol
[exec] var url = new URL(filename);
[exec] ^
[exec] symbol: class var
[exec] location: class JShellTool
...
---
This is because the build still uses -source 9 -target 9, while the code
already uses type inference. We could update the setting to -source 10
-target 10, but I am not sure we need it - can we just use the default?
This is not an official build, so some small differences from the
official build are acceptable I think.

Thanks,
