Install JAVA 8 images

[tdirven]

Hi,

When using Java 6 I always installed these java images. (See below)
Can I do the same for Java 8 so I get a better performance of the Java applications on OpenVMS?
Which images do you recommend to be installed and with which options.

Example of JAVA 8.
$ INSTALL REPLACE SOFTDISK1:[JAVA605.JAVA$60.BIN]JAVA$JAVA.EXE /HEAD/SHARE/OPEN/RESIDENT
$ INSTALL REPLACE SOFTDISK1:[JAVA605.JAVA$60.JRE.LIB.IA64.HOTSPOT]JAVA$HOTSPOT_SHR.EXE /HEAD/SHARE/OPEN/RESIDENT
$ INSTALL REPLACE SOFTDISK1:[JAVA605.JAVA$60.JRE.LIB.IA64]JAVA$JAVA_VMS_SHR.EXE /HEAD/SHARE/OPEN/RESIDENT
$ INSTALL REPLACE SOFTDISK1:[JAVA605.JAVA$60.JRE.LIB.IA64]JAVA$ZIP_SHR.EXE /HEAD/SHARE/OPEN/RESIDENT
$ INSTALL REPLACE SOFTDISK1:[JAVA605.JAVA$60.JRE.LIB.IA64]JAVA$JAVA_SHR.EXE /HEAD/SHARE/OPEN/RESIDENT
$ INSTALL REPLACE SOFTDISK1:[JAVA605.JAVA$60.JRE.LIB.IA64]JAVA$VERIFY_SHR.EXE /HEAD/SHARE/OPEN/RESIDENT
$ INSTALL REPLACE SOFTDISK1:[JAVA605.JAVA$60.JRE.LIB.IA64.NATIVE_THREADS]JAVA$HPI_SHR.EXE /HEAD/SHARE/OPEN/RESIDENT
$ INSTALL REPLACE SOFTDISK1:[JAVA605.JAVA$60.JRE.LIB.IA64]JAVA$NET_SHR.EXE /HEAD/SHARE/OPEN/RESIDENT
$ INSTALL REPLACE SOFTDISK1:[JAVA605.JAVA$60.JRE.LIB.IA64]JAVA$NIO_SHR.EXE /HEAD/SHARE/OPEN/RESIDENT

You can safely install all of the Java 8 shareable images (*_shr.exe) if you wish. Not all images will necessarily be used by all applications however.
