adoptopenjdk cask does not exist

Open bgeet opened this issue 4 years ago • 3 comments

Documentation mentions an adoptopenjdk cask: https://github.com/AdoptOpenJDK/homebrew-openjdk/blob/3e6ed3cb423ac9ce63aeb1e01d0371cd588db987/README.md#available-versions

But an adoptopenjdk cask does not exist: https://github.com/AdoptOpenJDK/homebrew-openjdk/blob/3e6ed3cb423ac9ce63aeb1e01d0371cd588db987/Casks/adoptopenjdk.rb

An adoptopenjdk cask can only be found in a third-party tap for which authorship is unclear: https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-cask/blob/a4dd4a19088c9f9b7676d73498c3f6192d0fc646/Casks/adoptopenjdk.rb

Possible solutions: a) provide an adoptopenjdk cask (caveat: cask name will clash with homebrew/cask tap; however that didn't stop an adoptenjdk8 cask: https://github.com/AdoptOpenJDK/homebrew-openjdk/issues/106) b) document that adoptopenjdk cask is provided by a third-party

I have the same issue, since I wanted to install brew install --cask adoptopenjdk8

Just to confirm, is the adoptopenjdk cask located here https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-cask/blob/HEAD/Casks/adoptopenjdk.rb not official or maintained by the team here?

We do maintain that cask - @gdams - do we need to update this given our move to Adoptium?
