Immediate Crash on "java.sql.Connection.createStatement" for Java ARM64 for Apple Silicon #543

I tried installing both Java 17 and 20 from Oracle's site that's compiled specifically for ARM64 to be optimized for Apple Silicon based Macs. It seems they cause an immediate crash on "java.sql.Connection.createStatement" for some reason.

$ /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk-17.jdk/Contents/Home/bin/java -jar /Applications/MegaBasterd.jar

SEVERE: Error opening connection
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NullPointerException: Cannot invoke "java.sql.Connection.createStatement()" because "conn" is null

The only workaround is to default back to what Apple includes pre-installed on the system, which is still an x86_64 binary. You can do this by either uninstalling the Oracle JDK's or renaming their "info.plist" to something else.

$ /usr/libexec/java_home -V
