Software-update: Oracle Java 12.0.1 / 11.0.3 / 8 update 212/211

JavaOracle heeft versies 12.0.1, 11.0.3, en 8 versie 212 / 211 van Java Standard Edition uitgebracht. Oracle brengt sinds versie 11.x alleen nog maar de Java SE Development Kit (JDK) uit, in zowel de Oracle JDK- als OpenJDK-smaak, waarbij de laatste onder de gpl-licentie wordt aangeboden. Er worden geen Java Runtime Environment (JRE) en Server Java Runtime Environment (Server JRE) meer uitgebracht. Wel is het mogelijk om met jlink een kleinere runtime samen te stellen. De releasenotes van deze versies zien er als volgt uit:

Let op als je runtime commercieel gebruikt dat je moet gaan betalen.
Of AdoptOpenJDK gebruiken. Die is gratis. :)
Er zijn meer alternatieven dan enkel AdoptOpenJDK, concurent Zulu heeft een overzicht gemaakt met de alternatieven en waar deze over beschikken.
Het OpenJDK project is inmiddels door RedHat 'overgenomen'. Daar heb ik dan ook het volste vertrouwen in.
Ter verduidelijking: Red Hat heeft enkel het onderhoud van de OpenJDK 8 en 11 projecten overgenomen, omdat Oracle geen zin heeft om zijn resources hieraan te spenderen.
Oracle biedt ook gewoon gratis "production-ready open-source builds" aan: http://jdk.java.net/12/
