legacy java se 6 runtime for mac os high sierra

OBTAIN JAVA : I suggest to use OpenJDK based Java (OpenJDK based Java release includes JDK & JRE) from site (it is free for any Commercial usage & also free for any Personal usage & you're free to include JRE/JDK with your App, etc ), use OpenJDK when a java-based App needs (latest) Java or Legacy-Java (not below Legacy-Java 6).

Then Apple macOSX stopped including any Java, so user had to load on their own.

( i think, upto Java SE 6 in upto macOSX High-Sierra 10.13 ).

One computer can have/use multiple versions of Java JRE/JDK, etc.

So user need to load those specific version, which is required by an App.

Some apps specifically need to use very specific (old) version of Java SE JRE/JDK, etc.

'LEGACY JAVA' is older version of Java SE JRE/JDK, etc. Run/double-click on 'JavaSE6.pkg' file inside ~/Downloads/tmp/ folder. Pkgutil -flatten ~/Downloads/tmp/OSXJavaSE6/ ~/Downloads/tmp/JavaSE6.pkg Sed -i '' 's/return false/return true/g' ~/Downloads/tmp/OSXJavaSE6/Distribution Hdiutil unmount '/Volumes/Java for macOS 2017-001/' Pkgutil -expand '/Volumes/Java for macOS 2017-001/JavaForOSX.pkg' ~/Downloads/tmp/OSXJavaSE6/ This should work to enable adding legacy Java onto the Catalina Mac OS device Run this ModifiedJava6Install.pkg to install Java 6.

Running the script will create a ModifiedJava6Install.pkg on your desktop.
