Since I do most of my testing with one particular application of my own. I was trying to figure out how to embed Java 9 JRE or JDK into a copy of the application. 
I haven’t done that much with embedding. It seemed to indicate different files missing. I was thinking this was because the directory structure I was copying into Plugins wasn’t starting at the right place. 
I started wondering if the JavaAppLauncher code as is would even work with the current Java 9 JRE/JDK? 
I was then thinking that I’d launch some other way. Maybe make the application launch executable a bash script. I might loose AppleEvents that way though and the app just might have launch dependencies on running some AppleScript’s. It has become OS X’ified over time since I last tried doing anything with it on Windows.

Do you know should JavaAppLauncher work with the Java 9 builds?
