Hi, Simon et al.:
My attempts to install rJava 0.9-12 from source failed under both
macOS 10.15.4 and Windows 10.
Below please find what I got just now trying "update.packages()"
and selecting "install from sources" on both computers followed by
"sessionInfo()" in each case.
Thanks for your help.

Spencer,
you could argue that Java is dead since Oracle effectively killed it by
removing all public downloads, but if you manage to get hold of a Java
installation then it works just fine with R. To my best knowledge there has
never been an issue if you installed rJava from source. macOS Catalina has made
binary distributions impossible due to additional restrictions on run-time, but
even that has been how solved with the release of rJava 0.9-12, so please make
sure you use the latest rJava. In most cases that I have seen issues were
caused by incorrect configuration (setting JAVA_HOME incorrectly [do NOT set it
unless you know what you're doing!], not installing Java for the same
architecture as R etc.). If you have any issues feel free to report them. rJava
0.9-12 has quite a few changes that try to detect user errors better and report
them so I strongly suggest users to upgrade.
Cheers,
Simon

Hello, All:
Is Java being deprecated for R?
I ask, because I've been unable to get rJava 0.9-11 to work under either macOS 10.15 or Windows 10,
and I can't get rJava 0.9-12 to install -- and my Ecfun package uses it: I can't get "R CMD build
Ecfun" to work on my Mac nor "R CMD check Ecfun_0.2-4" under Windows. Travis CI builds
"https://github.com/sbgraves237/Ecfun"; just fine.
The rJava maintainer, Simon Urbanek, has kindly responded to two of my
three emails on this since 2020-03-20, but I've so far been unable to translate
his suggestions into fixes for these problems.
Should I remove rJava from Ecfun and see what breaks, then see if I can work
around that? Should I provide the error messages I get for rJava from
"update.packages()" and / or library(rJava) on both machines, with
sessionInfo() to this list or to Stack Exchange or Stack Overflow?
Since I'm getting so many problems with rJava on under both macOS and
Windows 10, that suggests to me that potential users could have similar
problems, and I should try to remove rJava from Ecfun.
What do you think?
Thanks,
Spencer Graves
