Javapackager 10 to bundle OpenJDK 11 runtime

[Alan White (Drum Score Editor)]

Thanks. I’ll grab the Glueon ones for now to finish the app migration to 11, ie get off jdk 8 before January, and start working with the EA jpackager and migrate when suitable.

You can download an early access of this tool on jdk.java.net [2]. Discussion on jpackage is happening on the core-libs-dev mailing list [3]. Alternatively, Gluon has a standalone version of javapackager that will work with JDK 11. Johan Vos can provide a pointer.
