Feature Request: Shim a JDK
brunoborges opened this issue · comments
As explained in this issue, the Oracle JDK installers for Windows (and possibly for macOS too) now shims only 4 binaries in a folder called java_home
and uses such directory as the bin
that is appended to PATH
.
An interesting feature for JDKMon is to offer the user an option to clean PATH
and JAVA_HOME
, and then allow the user to select which JDK they actually want, and then shim the binaries, append the folder containing the shims in PATH, and point JAVA_HOME to that particular JDK only.
This would potentially take JDKMon to the next level as a cross-platform JDK Switcher.
