Java Webstart is gone in Java 11. This means there are no means left to build and distribute standalone Java applications across multiple platforms.
Java Webstart was deprecated since the “old model” of having a separate system-wide JRE capable of running Java programs from different sources, was supposedly outmoded by the “new model”, i.e. stand-alone apps, complete with their own bundled JRE. ...but then all means to create a stand-alone application was also deprecated and removed. If you need webstart or application packaging, you must wait for the proposed jpackager, and remain at Java 10 until then. /Lennart Börjeson Electrogramma ab iPhono meo missum est > 20 sep. 2018 kl. 21:05 skrev Kamlesh Prajapati > <kamlesh.prajapati@hops.healthcare>: > > Hi, > > Currently , I used javafx 8 with JNLP Application. > > Is JNLP application support in javafx11 + java11 ? > > Any idea about auto update application in win(exe),mac,linux base application > ? > > > > > >> On Wed, Sep 19, 2018 at 11:54 AM Lennart Börjeson <lenbo...@gmail.com> wrote: >> It was migrated, but removed... >> >> The recommended work-around is to use the javapackager in OracleJDK 10 when >> packing Java/OpenJfx 11 applications. >> >> That may or may not be practical depending on your build setup.
