Due to server slowness, downtime, and other issues, Eclipse will be moving to a more stable and efficient platform that should result in much better stability. There is no timeline for this yet, just want you to know what's happening with all the downtime and I have a plan to fix it.

OpenJDK 21 for Vista x64 (no extended kernel required)

Have a method to get an application work on an older unsupported Windows version? Post it here.

I forked OpenJDK 21 and made this

https://github.com/WindClan/jdk21-vista

it runs under vista without the extended kernel and networking actually works
i havent been able to get x86 to build and there are no x86 builds available so it probably wont happen
xp builds wont happen since that needs more than a few edits and brand changes (thats outside of my knowledge)

I had downloaded it but I've never used it so use it at your own risks.
