Austin Stephens commented on NETBEANS-1202:
-------------------------------------------
That is right. I would add that the JRE comes with it's own modules, so you
could just deploy the parts that you use and Netbeans would keep track of which
ones you need (as if they are Netbeans Modules), thus reducing the the amount
of space the JRE takes.
> Add support for bundling and updating the bundled JRE for Platform
> applications (for Java 9+)

> Components: platform - Other
> Reporter: Austin Stephens
> Priority: Critical
>
> According to [Oracle ("End of Public
> Updates")|http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/eol-135779.html], they do
> not plan on migrating desktops from Java 8 to a later version via auto-update
> and "... encourage application developers to [use the packaging options
> introduced with Java SE
> 9|https://blogs.oracle.com/java-platform-group/the-future-of-javafx-and-other-java-client-roadmap-updates]
> to repackage and deliver their Java applications as stand-alone applications
> that include their own custom runtimes."
> It would be wonderful if the NetBeans Platform could handle updating the
> bundled JRE (as if it was a Netbeans Module) so it would be less of a
> head-ache to get Java Security updates out and such.
