還有人在用WebStart這種骨灰級技術嗎?
發現了OpenJDK在Windows PC的替代方案『IcedTea-Web』
IcedTea-Web源自於Linux，當然也有Linux PC安裝檔，只是敝公司使用Windows PC
https://adoptopenjdk.net/releases.html#x64_win
下載時選『OpenJDK 8 (LTS)』，HotSpot(源自Oracle)或是OpenJ9(源自IBM)都可以
再點選『其他平台』，再點選『Windows x64』，x86不知道為何沒有包進IcedTea-Web
目前測試沒問題，測試版本是x64_windows_hotspot_8u222b10
不用付保護費還可以使用O家已經不公開下載的最新版8u222
也有人發起https://openwebstart.com，但似乎還在開發
Our goal is to have beta tests and a release candidate ready in Q3/2019.
再觀察看看

Speaking of technologies that will not be included in JDK 11, Oracle has
decided to extend support for Web Start in Java SE 8 from March 2019, through
at least March 2025 but it will not be included in JDK 11 and later.
