Alpine Linux on x64 and AArch64

Hello Aleksei,

This is something I don't get.
If the code linked to JEP 386 includes in OpenJDK 16, is production ready (contradictory with the sentence "Alpine Linux Build is not included in JDK 16 because it isn't enough mature for production.") , why this build is not available at  http://jdk.java.net/16/ ?

Best Regards.

Hi Lilian,

the code integrated in OpenJDK project source code as part of JEP 386 into JDK 16 is production ready, otherwise it would not have been integrated. It's possible to build OpenJDK for Alpine Linux with the provided instructions [1] or find an OpenJDK distribution that provides pre-built binaries for the target architecture of your choice.

Thanks,

-Aleksei
