com.sun.javafx.collections in Java 9

Question

I need to recompile java applicattion, written on Java 8. App use com.sun.javafx.collections.ObservableListWrapper class, but when compiling for java 9 error occurs:

Error:(3, 22) java: package com.sun.javafx.collections is not visible
  (package com.sun.javafx.collections is declared in module javafx.base,     which does not export it to the unnamed module)

Which class I can use instead of ObservableListWrapper? Or how to bypass this problem?

Why are you using that class to begin with? – James_D Jan 09 '18 at 16:08 — James_D, Jan 09 '18 at 16:08

Since Java9, most of the com.sun.* APIs are unsupported, JDK-internal APIs and they might go away at any time. Also as described in the noteworthy column -

You should plan to move to using the javafx.collections.FXCollections instead.

Use exposed class since Java 8: ModifiableObservableListBase.

That should handle all your needs.
