Hello @eedrummer, how are you ?
Any thoughts ? I am hitting this error for JDK 8, 11, 15 as well as for 16.

Would appreciate your input.

It shouldn't fail with older versions of the JDK. You can see that our master branch built with Java 8 and Java 15 just a few days ago: https://github.com/synthetichealth/synthea/actions/runs/842427560

This looks like a Java 16+ error. The solution might be for us to update our Gradle wrapper to the latest version.

gradle/gradle#16641
gradle/gradle#15538

This should be fixed with PR #894.
