Fwd: javapackager

[Michael Hall]

Forward a copy of this to the port list as well if of any interest. 
My understanding is that the support list for javapackager though is openjfx-dev. My further understanding is that javapackager represents the on-going support of appbundler. It does code signing, builds application dmg’s, package installers, etc. 
I am trying to embed a Java 9 JDK into my application based off of javapackager builds.
It appears you have to manually replace the default embedded JDK (8 for me) with the Java 9 one. How this is added seems a little different from how I remember appbundler applications but I didn’t do a lot with embedded previously. For the Java 9 early access having an embedded test version for the application seemed like a good idea.
I got a small test app to work but the full application is currently as shown below.
