Got it I think...

props:store·java.io.Writer·java.lang.String( Q{java:java.io.FileWriter}new($source), "The saucer has landed")

Hi,

I am trying to write a Java property file using v9.5.1 and no new Java code.

The code below runs in 9.7.3. Although it only uses 9.5 features in 9.5.1 it produces the error message

props:store·java.io.Writer·String cannot be called with (Writer, String).

but https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/api/java/util/Properties.html#store-java.io.Writer-java.lang.String-

I assume this is a 9.5.1 java binding bug?

Any workaround suggestions or details of what the problem is?
