Run Java based Application on mac without having to install Java on it but using bundled JRE instead

Question

I have Java-Maven project made on Eclipse RCP. The project runs fine using Java on the system. But I don't want the client to have to install Java to run that project. So, I have put jdk inside folder, removed Java from the system and played a little with its info.plist file. But everytime I try to run it, it asks to install Java. I am pretty sure I am making mistakes in info.plist but there might be something else I am missing.

PS - deployment in windows using bundled java works fine.

Answer 1

It seems eclipse on Mac requires a full JDK, so I don't know if having a full JDK (in place of a JRE..) depoyed in your bundle under "<eclipse install dir>/jre" will do the job (To be tested)

If not, you can still bundle your app with a full JDK somewhere under your "<eclipse install dir>" and reference javaw in eclipse.ini , The "-vm" stanza accepts relative paths to javaw
