B4J Question Including jdk.crypto.ec without B4JPackager

[MindTorque]

Is there a convenient means of including jdk.crypto.ec without making a package?
Like when we simply #include an additional .jar in the IDE...

Thanks

The only case where you need to explicitly include it is when you are building a package.

Well... perhaps not quite.

When I compile the app in the IDE & run it, secure connections don't want to work
due to expecting the elliptic curve crypto to be available and it's not - the most
recent versions of web browsers requiring it to call the connection secure.
When I run the SSL server test (from https://www.ssllabs.com/) it finds all in
order apart from the elliptic curve being missing.

There might be something else missing, however there isn't enough information here to say.

Hrm... Well, the log doesn't show any error messages, but here it is:

Not exactly revealing (at least not to me...), that's why I'd like to try including what isn't supposed to be required and see if it makes a difference.

All modules are included unless you build a package. There is no such thing: include jdk.crypto.ec without the packager.

With OpenJDK 11, jServer supports TLS 1.3 with TLS_AES_256_GCM_SHA384. This is a modern and secure cipher.
