Good morning,

Could there be an error in the latest version of the package?
WindowsVersions() is a class, not a function, and therefore does not return anything; consequently, regardless of the case, this package will install the java8-xp package
Shouldn't it be windows_version() instead?

Code: Select all

   
if WindowsVersions()<=Version('5.1'):
	 # plus compatible avec windows XP
        prefix = control.package.split('-')[0]
        WAPT.install('%s-java8-xp'%prefix)
else:
	allmsi = glob.glob('*.msi')
        for msi in allmsi :
            java_version = get_msi_properties(msi)['ProductVersion']
            print ('Installation de Java version : ' + java_version)
            break

Hello gentlemen,

A Java update is available: https://java.com/fr/download/manual.jsp

However, I'm just asking in case: will you continue to package Java this way, with the 32-bit and 64-bit versions together?

On the web forums, they separate the two, which isn't ideal for me, as we have a business application running on Java/ActiveX (and everything has been configured at the vendor's end to force the launch of 32-bit IE, even on 64-bit Windows machines).

Sincerely,

Re: Package: tis-java8

Indeed, we forgot to push the 8u211 update to the public store... Sorry.

However, version 8u212 is now only available for free to developers or for personal use... which severely restricts its use!

We'll start repackaging the OpenJDK JRE in WAPT to resolve this issue. If you have an Oracle license for Java, you can easily update the package by running `wapt-get edit` and replacing the old version with the new one. Don't forget to update the control file as well.

Sincerely,

Denis
