Alpha v0.0.1-alpha.12
Pre-release
This update completed the implementation for the Java settings tab. Options to edit the Java executable path and JVM options have been added.
Java Executable Setting
The Java executable is soft validated on the settings UI. The results of this validation are displayed on the UI. If an invalid file is selected, Invalid Selection will be displayed. If the validations are successful, information on the selected Java version will be displayed.
Ex.
User has selected:
C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.8.0_172\bin\javaw.exeUI Displays:
Selected: Java 8 Update 172 (x64)
This value is only soft validated. If an invalid value is selected, you can still save and exit settings. Nothing will turn red. The value is hard validated before game launch. If an invalid value is selected, the launcher will attempt to correct that by scanning for a valid Java installation. If none are found, we tell the user. This behavior was added a few months ago.
The text The path should end with xxx is OS specific. Windows: bin\javaw.exe. MacOS/Linux: bin/java.
JVM Options Setting
An interesting UI was planned for this, however in the interest of time a simpler UI was implemented. The JVM options are listed as space separated values inside of a text field. These values are not validated, as only advanced users should be editing them. The fancier UI may be implemented in a post-release update.
