Ensure specific release instead of 21.latest

borkdude commented 11 months ago

I'd like to download specific releases of Oracle GraalVM 21, like 21.0.0 and not get the 21 latest automatically.

As discussed on Slack with @fniephaus:

good question, I don’t think you can at the moment. the logic is here and does not take into GA releases account. Can you file a ticket so we can look into it?

The script-friendly URL are unfortunately a bit awkward with the regard to GA vs latest releases:

https://download.oracle.com/java/latest/jdk-_linux-x64_bin.tar.gz links to the latest version
https://download.oracle.com/java/archive/jdk-_linux-x64_bin.tar.gz links to the GA version

I'm proposing to work around this by putting the following special handling for GA versions in place:

java-version: '21' will continue to use latest for the latest version
java-version: '21.0.0' will use archive for the GA version

Does this makes sense to you?

Sounds like a good solution to me!
