Fascinating. I know how to write an app that requires java 8 (just use lambdas) or 11 (just use newish TLS), but wow does one even write an app that needs 32-bit or 64-bit java? Or that works with Sun java but not with others?

Some apps rely on optional JRE features or even private APIs.

Newer Java versions have started blocking private API usage. You can override the block but hopefully, it helps developers become aware of what they’re doing.
