+Java 10 is supported through vanilla java toolchain
+link:https://docs.bazel.build/versions/master/toolchains.html[Bazel option].
+To build Gerrit with Java 10, specify vanilla java toolchain and provide
+path to Java 10 home:
+
+```
+  $ bazel build --host_javabase=:absolute_javabase \
+    --define=ABSOLUTE_JAVABASE=<path-to-java-10> \

+    --host_java_toolchain=//:toolchain_vanilla \
+    --java_toolchain=//:toolchain_vanilla \
+    :release
+```
+
+Note that the following options must be added to `container.javaOptions`
+in `$gerrit_site/etc/gerrit.config` to run Gerrit with Java 10:
+
+```
+[container]
+  javaOptions = --add-modules java.activation
+  javaOptions = --add-opens=jdk.management/com.sun.management.internal=ALL-UNNAMED
