Description
Suggestion
I expect to be able to browse for a JDK and not have to manually type some json.
Use Cases
What do you want to use this for?
Setting up a new runtime using a JDK that is extracted locally not with an installer
What shortcomings exist with current approaches?
I don't like json and I shouldn't have to type out directory name when this use case has been done with a GUI for the last 2 decades.
Examples
- Download and extract a JDK
- Go to Configure Runtime
- Click a button that brings up a filesystem browser
- Select the directory of the JDK
