Cordova Microsoft OpenSDK

Work is not licensing the required Cordova Java versions - money.
Does Cordova work with Microsoft OpenSDK?

I'm not finding anything called OpenSDK so I assume you mean Microsoft's build of OpenJDK.

It's not something that is tested against but if it implements the Java specification properly I see no reason why it wouldn't work.

Cordova's CI mainly uses AdoptJDK, which is also built from OpenJDK.

The JDK shipped with Android Studio could be used as well.

See CORDOVA_JAVA_HOME for how you can tell cordova which JDK environment to use.

Thanks.. Yes I was pleased when they implemented the CORDOVA_JAVA_HOME idea - I think we originally discussed that on another issue.

Anyway - I was going on the requirements for the Android Platform implementation:

If you are using cordova-android 10.0.0 or greater, install the [Java Development Kit (JDK) 11]
If you are using any version below cordova-android 10.0.0, install the [Java Development Kit (JDK) 8]

Are you saying that say Microsoft Open JDK 21 should work?

you'll probably need JDK 17 if they have that version available (for current latest release, which the docs are currently slightly out-dated).

It's worth noting that Android Studio ships with an OpenJDK 17 build and that's what they use, if you were to do native android development.

Hi Norman, Look like the default structure works in 21 - 17 also for basic. Q: On the work pc's they have: C:\Program Files\AdoptOpenJDK\jdk-11.0.11.9-hotspot\bin\java.exe C:\Program Files\Microsoft\jdk-21.0.2.13-hotspot\bin\java.exe I can't change this. I use: ANDROID_JAVA_HOME = C:\Program Files\Android\Android Studio\jbr\bin When run requirements it still says Java JDK: installed 21.0.2. Should it not use C:\Program Files\Android\Android Studio\jbr\bin? Phil

Depends on your environment variables.

Cordova will check CORDOVA_JAVA_HOME first and if set (and if it appears valid) it will use that JDK.

Otherwise Cordova fallsback to the standard JAVA_HOME. Cordova does not make use of ANDROID_JAVA_HOME environment variable.

Apologies - ignore.

I come back to this module once a year. So I forgot that the path should not include the "bin" folder - as is common elsewhere.

Anyway - sorry..
