I put together a patch to do this in upstream.

Upstream bug report: https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/index.php?54219

Moved the milestone for this to The Future. It requires upstream Octave changes, and these didn't make it in to Octave 4.4.0 or 4.4.1.

Sigh. This is even more of an inconvenience than I thought: Oracle does not provide downloads for the older versions of JDK 8. They're up to JDK 8 u191 now, so the JDK 8 u181 installer is no longer available for download. But our Octave 4.4.0 release was built against JDK 8 u181. Which means that users who haven't happened to have previously installed JDK 8 u181 don't have a way of getting Java to work with our 4.4.0 distribution.

I think this applies to the Homebrew-supplied bottles for Octave, too.

I'll nudge upstream on this when I have some spare time.

Upstream has added support for JAVA_HOME, so at least we could detect and set that in our launcher wrapper script: https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?40111. It'll be available in 5.0.

Moving this to Low priority, since I haven't seen any users asking for better Java support.

Upstream merged a patch to fix this; it'll come out in the next major Octave release. Closing as fixed.
