By default, rmic uses the old javac compiler in sun.tools for compiling the generated stubs. This compiler accepts Java source code at the 1.3 level. Rmic sets the compilation environment to generate version 45.3 class files (equivalent of -target 1.1), which is the release in which RMI was introduced. This ensures that generated stubs are compatible with any shipping RMI binary. There is a hidden option -Xnew to rmic that generates and compiles stubs using "newrmic" which is an alternate, incomplete, and unsupported version of rmic. This version uses the new javac compiler in com.sun.tools.javac. To preserve compatibility the same way it does with the old javac, newrmic passes the -source 1.3 -target 1.1 options to the new javac. These options have been desupported and removed by the fix for JDK-8011044: Remove support for 1.5 and earlier source and target options Interestingly, the compilation invoked by newrmic with these unsupported options doesn't cause the compilation to fail. Instead, invalid class files are generated, and these generate a VerifyError when they are loaded by the JVM. Static stub generation for JRMP is deprecated, and newrmic supports only JRMP stub generation (not IIOP/CORBA stub generation). There is therefore little use in running tests that use newrmic, so the invocations using -Xnew in this test should simply be removed.
