SDK Extension for OpenJDK 23

This extension contains the OpenJDK 23 Java Runtime Environment (JRE) and Java Developement Kit (JDK).

OpenJDK 23 is the current latest version. This is not a long-term support (LTS) version and will be periodically updated as new JDKs are released.

For the current LTS version, see the OpenJDK 21 extension.

For the previous LTS version, see the OpenJDK 17 extension.

Usage

You can bundle the JRE with your Flatpak application by adding it to sdk-extensions in your Flatpak manifest and executing the /usr/lib/sdk/openjdk/install.sh script.

Simplified example to make the JRE available at runtime:

id: org.example.MyApp
runtime: org.freedesktop.Platform
runtime-version: '24.08'
sdk: org.freedesktop.Sdk
sdk-extensions:
  - org.freedesktop.Sdk.Extension.openjdk

modules:
  - name: openjdk
    buildsystem: simple
    build-commands:
      - /usr/lib/sdk/openjdk/install.sh
  - name: myapp
    buildsystem: simple
    ...

...

finish-args:
  - --env=PATH=/app/jre/bin:/app/bin:/usr/bin

To additionally make the JRE available at buildtime of module myapp, set build-options.append-path accordingly:

...

modules:
  ...
  - name: myapp
    buildsystem: simple
    build-options:
      append-path: /usr/lib/sdk/openjdk/jvm/openjdk-23/bin
    ...
