> According to [Oracle ("End of Public Updates")|http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/eol-135779.html], they do not plan on migrating desktops from Java 8 to a later version via auto-update and "... encourage application developers to [use the packaging options introduced with Java SE 9|https://blogs.oracle.com/java-platform-group/the-future-of-javafx-and-other-java-client-roadmap-updates] to repackage and deliver their Java applications as stand-alone applications that include their own custom runtimes."
> It would be wonderful if the NetBeans Platform could handle updating the bundled JRE (as if it was a Netbeans Module) so it would be less of a head-ache to get Java Security updates out and such.
