Ah, thanks for those links. You are right, it is a huge project! And it sounds
like progress is being made on these fronts, although I have not seen much
discussion of the need to be able to turn on the hardened runtime and pass in
an entitlements file. I will hope this is all converging on a working state in
a future release, where I will be able to switch back to letting jpackage
handle things rather than doing low-level surgery on the application image
myself prior to signing and notarizing it. If anyone wants to have me try
things (or even find out some of what I’ve learned getting and keeping this
continuous integration pipeline working over the last several weeks) hopefully
they will know where to find me. ^_^
Cheers,
-James
