Ideally I would like Apache to make some policy changes. But now I also have a way to do what I believe it's best for the users and the end product regardless of what Apache decides.
InnoSetup is good enough for a Windows installer. I guess it's possible to download the JDK as part of the installation but what I care most is how to update the bundled JDK! I have an idea here but need time to experiment. --emi http://coolbeans.xyz/ - CoolBeans: An IDE for Java, JavaEE, PHP and more!
