Java LTS (17 and 11)?

Open K0-RR opened this issue 3 years ago • 8 comments

The only bundles that provide java are these: https://clearlinux.org/software/bundle/java13-basic https://clearlinux.org/software/bundle/java13-runtime https://clearlinux.org/software/bundle/java-basic https://clearlinux.org/software/bundle/java-runtime

It looks like it's only java 8 and 13. None of them are supported anymore and should not be used. Can you add bundle with the jdk 17 (and 11 if possible). Without these you cannot run many java programs.

What about this? https://clearlinux.org/software/bundle/java11-basic Cant seem to find any for 17 though.

suggesting NOT having distro-level support of jdk/jvm families of tools and offloading support to https://sdkman.io for the java bytecode domain and especially the maven/gradle tools.

@jnorthrup but will those sdkman binaries be compiled in the same way as the current clear linux OpenJDK?

given the CLR usecase of shrink-wrapping highest performing builds, @marc0der might be persuaded to consider such a thing.

@jnorthrup the binaries downloaded through SDKMAN are the exact binaries found on the origin download sites; we do not tamper with any binaries that upstream vendors provide.
