[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #59215] [MXE] and core Octave: Java 15 detection on MS Windows fails

[Kai Torben Ohlhus]

Update of bug #59215 (project octave):

                  Status:                    None => Need Info

Follow-up Comment #7:

Regarding comment #5 and #6, I favor to remove the Java check in mxe-octave
entirely.  It confuses users (at least many of my colleagues) and there is no
urgent need for a working Java interface when using Octave for numerical
tasks.

This would reduce a flood of help requests and bug reports from worried users,
installing Octave on Windows for the first time and find themselves a (false)
warning they cannot fix themselves as Java is correctly setup on their
system.

The small portion of users that really want to use Java on Windows with Octave
can be helped more precisely.
