[ jEdit-devel ] [jedit:bugs] #4123 macOS Jedit cannot find Java engine

[Matthew O. <le...@us...>]

If it helps, the 5.7pre1 version you provided was able to find java on my system. Here is the Java I have installed:

% java -version
openjdk version "21.0.2" 2024-01-16 LTS
OpenJDK Runtime Environment Temurin-21.0.2+13 (build 21.0.2+13-LTS)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM Temurin-21.0.2+13 (build 21.0.2+13-LTS, mixed mode)

Thank you for the update. I have been looking forward to it as I have been having issues with hypersearch beachballing my system for large files (or taking an extremely long time), I think ever since the move away from Java 1.8. The same hypersearch on Windows completes quickly. (If it is still occuring I will try to gather data and submit as a separate ticket.)

One thing I have noticed with this release is it prompts for access to certain restricted folders like the Downloads, but when I select Allow, the selection doesn't stick between sessions.

I installed Jedit (latest) from a macOS .dmg on Ventura 13.2.1. It complains it requires a Java 11 or higher; I have Java 19 on the path.
