Update on Windows shortcut features for ITW

Wed Jan 2 14:09:27 UTC 2019

Hi Jiri, 

Thank you, but don't worry about me. I have what I need. I have made a distribution with itw, exe launchers, openjdk, openjfx and a professional 32/64 bit windows setup for my clients. I am going to begin extensive testing this week and be ready for release Jan 15th. So Oracle can proceed with profitizing their Java we are ready with open source.

Hi ! Thank you very much for contribution. I will start a work on it and try to incorporate before january 15. But I'm a bit sceptic if the date will fit for you. I can probably promise to have it pushed within those 14 days to tip, but backport to 1.7 is unlikely. What is your opinion about it? Thanx a lot! zip dowloaded J.
