Rick Hillegas updated DERBY-5949:
---------------------------------

    Attachment: derby-5949-02-aa-noverify.diff

Attaching derby-5949-02-aa-noverify.diff. This patch adds a -noverify switch to the toursdb targets in order to hack around http://bugs.sun.com/view_bug.do?bug_id=8004967 . This allows us to build Derby on Open JDK 8. Committed at subversion revision 1443109.

Without this patch, the build dies while trying to generate toursdb. That is because merely connecting to a database trips a VerifyError when running on Java 8. This patch can be backed out after http://bugs.sun.com/view_bug.do?bug_id=8004967 is fixed.

With this patch, I can build on Java 8 on my mac provided that I set the following ant property:

  java18compile.classpath=/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.8.0/classes



Touches the following file:

M       java/demo/toursdb/build.xml
