      <div>Is there a how-to on using --runtime-image on MacOS? How are
        you supposed to get a valid runtime to put into
        JavaVirtualMachines?</div>
      <div><br>
      </div>
      <div>I installed jdk 23 to bootstrap a jdk build. I jpackage’d
        that.</div>

      <div>jpackage --verbose -n rt -t dmg --runtime-image

    This command should produce a Java runtime in JavaVirtualMachines
    subtree.<br>

      <div>The resulting jdk actually appears to have a similar
        directory layout to what is in JavaVirtualMachines. </div>

      <div>It lacks the _CodeSignature, Info.plist, and MacOS file and

    This is intentional (not sure it is correct, though).<br>

      <div>I tried giving it a more standard name in case naming

    No, it doesn't. The name you tried should work.<br>

      <div>The built is jdk 25 and the 23 bootstrap still shows
        current. </div>
      <div><br>
      </div>
      <div>I thought maybe using that runtime to build an application
        then jpackage would make it a valid MacOS runtime</div>
      <div><br>
      </div>
      <div>But jpackage --runtime-image with the runtime from that gets
        a couple no such file exceptions on</div>
      <div>runtime/Contents/Home/lib/libnio.dylib.dSYM/Contents/Info.plist</div>
      <div><br>
      </div>
      <div>The app gets</div>
      <div>HalfPipe.app/Contents/MacOS/HalfPipe</div>
      <div>Error: could not open
`/Users/mjh/HalfPipe/HalfPipe_jpkg/outputdir/HalfPipe.app/Contents/runtime/Contents/Home//lib/jvm.cfg’</div>

      <div>Possibly not a bug but not obviously easy either. </div>

    Thank you for trying it out! I'll look closer at the issues you
    reported and get back to you.<br>
