Status changed from New to Refused

this end of support doesn't mean that Java 10 cannot be used. 


We will upgrade to Java 11 in the future, but it is not a pressing issue.

Java 10 will receive updates till 2025 still, so nothing to worry about - it´s just like with Windows, they release a new version with new features, but the old ones still get bug fixes and security updates for years.


But actually, SQ X Build 111 works fine with Java 11 as I´ve just tested. You can simply download Java 11 from Zulu (faster builds than from Oracle) at https://www.azul.com/downloads/zulu/zulu-windows/ (make sure to grab Java 11 64 bit Server ZIP), rename the "j64" directory in your SQ installation directory to "j64.old", create a new "j64" directory, extract the downloaded ZIP file into that and then launch SQ X. It will now use Java 11 and does just fine with it so far.

new build will be distributed with Java 11 from OpenJDK.


According to my measurements, it is on par with Zulu Java performance-wise. But any user can replace it with his own Java version if he wants.
