Java9 or java 10 #847

Open zjkorder opened 6 years ago

If you modify it to java9, it will not reduce the size of packaging

empirephoenix commented 6 years ago

Neither Java9 nor Java10 will be LTS releases. Java 11 is the next LTS release.

Can this be closed with MR #1059 ?

I think by this OP means new jlink command which comes with java 9. This will only work if we use the Module system.

Oh, ok. That makes more sense than what I was trying to figure from the issue.

In this article, the author described a way for using jlink to build Java Runtimes for non-Modular applications. In his example, the size of the resulting java-runtime was 39Mb, compared to 286Mb for the full JDK. I have not tested this myself with JME, I am putting the link for the full article here in case anybody is interested to give it a try: https://medium.com/azulsystems/using-jlink-to-build-java-runtimes-for-non-modular-applications-9568c5e70ef4
