Hi all,

I am not sure if this is the right place, but I am not sure how to take
this forward.

After installing latest JDK8 b87 build I cannnot start NetBeans anymore.

see: https://netbeans.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=229191

It seems this is caused by

http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk8/jdk8/jdk/rev/73e3b474125e

>From my point of view this looks intentional (do not allow to create Proxy
objects for Interfaces that are not accessible following the Java
visibility rules.

So how to get this sorted out - should I file a bug against JDK8/OpenJDK8?
Should this be fixed inside NetBeans?

Thanks for any comments

-Sven
