| Use the Identifier for installation: | |
| $ sdk install java 11.0.3.hs-adpt | |
| ================================================================================ |
Also forgot to mention that the next step after this will lead us down the road to start issuing commands like:
$ sdk i java zulu 11.0.3
$ sdk i java zulu
And then later we can introduce:
$ sdk i java zulu 11

@hho No worries for being that guy 😄
I totally agree with what you are saying, but also very firmly believe in doing everything in small iterations. I never do big bang changes. They are dangerous and irresponsible.
The feature you are describing here is a completely separate matter. Tracking major versions has nothing to do with custom enhancements for Java and will be addressed as a separate piece of work. Tracking major versions are not specific to Java, but will be used for all SDKs.
People actually are interested in seeing the Java releases grouped by vendor, and this will lead us to later track not only the major version but also by vendor. In other words, if you want to track the latest major version 8 of Corretto, you can do so.
I want to keep the backend work at minimal for this set of changes, and want to start drawing some distinction between JDKs and SDKs from here on; the JDK is very different and should be treated so.
TLDR, this is not about major version tracking, it is about treating Java differently.
