Cool. The changes can be found in
https://github.com/infeo/jdk/commit/77c50367e3fd7d677bfe2e805be2feafa30b0a37.
Basically, the command line builder for wix3/wix4 is adjusted to set
the arch flag to x64, x86 or arm64 depending on return values of some
jdk.internal.util.Architecture::is[Architecture] methods. If the
architecture is not supported by the wix Version, an
IOException("Unsupported architecture") is thrown. I defined an
package private enum to filter out already unsupported architectures.
@"Alexey Semenyuk" I've read the contribution guide. So, the next step
would be finding a Sponsor?
Best regards,
Armin

Hi Armin,
Your ARM64 MSI contribution/enhancement for the jpackage will be much
