See jenkinsci/stapler#321. Noticed when pulling in jenkinsci/pom#226 in #508, where I got the following errors:
Animal Sniffer errors
Java 11 used covariance in the return type of some
ByteBuffer
methods, which breaks when running on Java 8. Downcasting to the base class works around the problem.Note that this is not a problem for us in practice, because we always compile releases on Java 8. This would only be a problem if we compiled on Java 11 and ran on Java 8.
This PR can be reverted if and when we require Java 11 to compile this repository.
