Bug#874156: FTBFS with Java 9: ambiguous put()

[Chris West]

Source: ow-util-ant-tasks
Version: 1.3.2
Severity: normal
User: debian-java at lists.debian.org
Usertags: default-java9

This package fails to build with default-jdk pointing to openjdk-9-jdk.
Please fix it, so that we can start the transition to Java 9.
The wiki has some common problems and their solutions:
https://wiki.debian.org/Java/Java9Pitfalls

This is probably due to 1.6 related generics changes,
or because an interface gained a new method. In either case,
the code needs fixing.
