I have recently installed JDK8 + Netbeans8 (downloaded the bundled setup from Oracle site) on my Windows 8.1 machine.
When I create a very simple JavaFX FXML application, it works fine. However when I add a new database entity class using the wizard and compile it, I get following stack trace:
Note: Creating non-static metadata factory ...
error: com.sun.tools.javac.code.Symbol$CompletionFailure: class file for sun.util.logging.PlatformLogger not found
An annotation processor threw an uncaught exception.
Consult the following stack trace for details.

C:\Users\AJQ\Documents\NetBeansProjects\JavaFX8App\nbproject\build-impl.xml:264: Compile failed; see the compiler error output for details.
BUILD FAILED (total time: 0 seconds)
However, if I comment out the annotations in the entity class or change the target platform from 1.8 to 1.7, application gets compiled without any issue.
Is it some bug in NetBeans 8 or some other configuration issue?
