Description
It's possible schemagen does not need to be multi-release aware, so first an investigation is in order and if it needs updating, update it.
Comments
The issue requested an investigation to determine if schemagen is multi-release jar aware. The investigation concluded that it is. No further work is required.

schemagen uses javac and javac is multi-release jar aware, thus schemagen is also multi-release jar aware. This can be demonstrated by the following test with the attached TestSchemagen.jar $ schemagen -cp TestSchemagen.jar test.Person This creates a file, schema1.xsd, with the following content: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?> <xs:schema version="1.0" xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"> <xs:complexType name="person"> <xs:sequence/> <xs:attribute name="lastName" type="xs:string"/> <xs:attribute name="identifier" type="xs:int" use="required"/> <xs:attribute name="version9" type="xs:string"/> </xs:complexType> </xs:schema> Notice the attribute named version9. Had the test failed, it would be named version8.
