- java-pkg-2.eclass is inherited to set up JDK 8 as the build VM properly, so a JAVA_HOME that points to JDK 8 is always passed to the ./configure script regardless of the eselect-java system VM setting. - The 'itw-modularjdk.args' file is now installed to an FHS-compliant path to allow the programs from this package to be run with JRE 9+. These programs are compatible with JRE 9+ under the condition that this file is installed. The file is required for integration with the Java Platform Module System introduced in Java 9. - README.gentoo is updated to convey the USE="-headless-awt" requirement for any JRE used to run those programs. This seems to be a runtime-only requirement, as using a JDK with this USE flag disabled would not cause any build errors during testing.

Browser plugin
|
|
--------------
|
|
|
|
The IcedTea browser plugin (NPPlugin) is no longer available,
|
|
as modern browsers no longer support this plugin format.
|
|
|
|
JVM selection
|
|
-------------
|
|
|
|
By default, Web Start uses the JVM
|
|
selected via eselect environment variable.
|
|
Note that this doesn't have to be an IcedTea. Openjdk will also work.
|
|
Also note that the selected JVM must have been installed with the
|
|
'headless-awt' USE flag *disabled*.
|
|
The choice can be overridden using the itweb-settings program.
|
|
Simply blank out the field to restore the default behaviour.
