Description

@kensoh

TagUI uses SikuliX as the visual automation / computer vision / OCR engine. SikuliX requires Java JDK v8 (64-bit) or later. However, Oracle now only allows the free version of Java JDK to be used for private non-commercial use.

Raising an issue to make a new release for TagUI for Python, with the following changes -

  1. when Java is detected as not installed on user computer, point user to install OpenJDK from Amazon Corretto website instead of Oracle Java JDK website
  2. added a new check when Java is detected as installed but it is not 64-bit version, point user to install OpenJDK from Amazon Corretto website

Change 2 is needed, otherwise for users with 32-bit Java, it gets undetected as an issue and visual automation will not be able to run properly and without explanation why. This change will remove confusion and troubleshooting time for minority of users who are having only 32-bit Java.
