Description
The `com.apple.concurrent.Dispatch` API was a Mac-only API and was carried into JDK 7u4 with the port of Apple's JDK 6 code.  This seldom-used and unsupported API has been removed in JDK 9.  Developers are encouraged to use the standard `java.util.concurrent.Executor` and `java.util.concurrent.ExecutorService` APIs instead.
