[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #59215] [MXE] and core Octave: Java 15 detection on MS Windows fails

[Philip Nienhuis]

Follow-up Comment #4, bug #59215 (project octave):

Yeah, it seems Windows' unambiguous way to find Java has fallen victim to what
looks like "change for the sake of change".
OTOH maybe we've been relying on this mechanism a little too much.

Since some time the JAVA_HOME environment setting also works fine on Windows
so there's at least another fall-back option.

FTR, Octave isn't quite the only SW failing to detect newer Java releases.
