[R-SIG-Mac] R and Java 10 ➜ rJava not able to build

[Luis Puerto]

Hi Jeff, 

Sorry if I’ve done something wrong posting to more that one list. Perhaps I should have written just different emails for each list so people from one list don’t reply to the other lists. Apologies for that. 

On another note, thanks for your reply. Let’s hope that we soon can have only one version of Java. 


Best Regards
Luis Puerto
