Well another option is obviously compiling screen share with JDK8. As a client you only need JRE8 installed. According to some sources only roughly 50% of users have that: https://plumbr.eu/blog/java/java-version-and-vendor-data-analyzed-2016-edition
What is the behaviour in case the Java version is too old? Will the screen sharing app show a message saying "Please update Java" or will it just silently fail without any error or generic/cryptic message ?
