Hi Erik,
Thanks for the clarification! How then does Oracle compile the JDK, such that
the versioning numbers appear in the following manner?
C:\Users\vertig0>java --version
java 21 2023-09-19 LTS
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 21+35-LTS-2513)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 21+35-LTS-2513, mixed mode, sharing)
(My system doesn't have OpenJDK as its main JDK, and uses the Oracle JDK instead. The "Java" strings should
rightfully be "OpenJDK", so pay no mind to that. Last I remember, the printed OpenJDK version is the same as
above except for "Java(TM)" being "OpenJDK" instead)
The MSYS2 Project would prefer to have its MinGW JDKs versioned as such (Eg build
21+35-LTS-2513 or whatever), rather than something like
"23-internal-adhoc.mingwci.jdk", and we'd prefer to mimic how Oracle compiles
both OpenJDK and Oracle JDK as closely as possible.
I sh ./configure --helpbelieve Oracle probably does it by specifying different
parts of the version string on configure, something like
bash configure <Whatever the option string and other compile options are>
"sh ./configure --help" and look for the --with-version options.
