I ran into the same problem you can recompile
Parser.java with a hack like this:    

    public Parser() 
    {
    /* DEBUG: version strings 1.1.x are not
       valid floating point numbers
    
        String version = System.getProperty("java.version");
    
        Float fver = new Float(version);
    */
        Float fver = new Float("1.1");
        jdk11 = (fver.doubleValue() >= 1.1) ? true : false;
        caseInsensitive = false;
    }

I'm using Sun's JDK not J++ so I can't comment
on the .dsp problem.
