Does anyone know of a OpenJDK distribution for Windows? Specifically, I am looking for JDK 8 32 bit. I found 64-bit distribution:
http://www.azulsystems.com/products/zulu
but I really need 32 bit.
MonkBen and others:
Thank you for highlighting the Zulu OpenJDK offering. You are correct that Azul only has 64-bit JDK 8, 7, and 6 distributions of OpenJDK available for Intel platforms today. Support for 32-bit JDKs remains an open community request.
Please review this Zulu Forum topic for more details on 32-bit support
https://support.azulsystems.com/hc/communities/public/questions/200914964-Regarding-32-bit-JDK-JRE-buildds-of-OpenJDk
Per the guidance there, you are welcome to join the Zulu forum and add your specific platform requests to that topic. We do include community requests in our roadmap activities and release planning, so the more votes for specific versions, platforms, and use cases, the better our planning.
Sincerely
Matt Schuetze

You can try to build 32 bit OpenJDK for windows by yourself, here is the link you can get help:
http://openjdk.java.net/groups/build/
and https://github.com/alexkasko/openjdk-unofficial-builds
AdoptOpenJDK
The AdoptOpenJDK project provides builds & installers of the OpenJDK source code. Free of cost. The project’s build & test tools are open-source.
As of 2020-03, that project provides a x86 build of the OpenJDK implementation of Java 8 specs for the Windows OS.
Notice the search filters for Operating System (Windows) and for Architecture (x86).

The docs say stuff like "Windows x64", but what does it mean with regards to operating system versions? What Windows Server is it compatible with, for example?
Same thing with "Linux x64", there is no such operating system of course, it all comes down to a particular minimal kernel version requirement, perhaps a minimum glibc version or something.
Is this information available anywhere please?
Windows builds are supported on Windows 7 and 10, and on Windows Server 2008, 2012, and 2016.
Says by official docs on GitHub
I have a task to update 8.5.5.2 web sphere to 8.5.5.14 on a windows 2008 server. I have java 1.7 already installed (and java 6 as well) and all the profiles uses it.
How ever when i try to apply fix patch using IBM installation manager, by default it's installing Java 8 which is not supported on windows 2008.
Is there a way where i can by pass java 8 and install only the fix patch (8.5.5.14) from installation manager.
Any pointer/help would be really appreciated. Thanks.
Installation Manager Screenshot:
No, WebSphere 8.5.5.14 requires Java 8, and Java 8 is not supported on Windows 2008 Server. If you must stay with Windows 2008 you can't update WebSphere past 8.5.5.13. More detail here: IBM WebSphere SDK Java Technology Edition 8.0 Minimum Supported Operating Systems
This is what IBM documentation ( https://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg27045339 ) says, I did some shortcuts to make key points easier to notice in a long article:
In 8.5.5.14 and later, it is planned that (Java8) SDK will be required for all new installations and all updates (fixpacks).
In 8.5.5.14 (...) prior operating system releases (such as Windows 2008 (...) ) will no longer be supported.
So unfortunately what you are trying to do is not supported:
Although Java7 is still fine as a runtime environment for your servers, for example if your business application is not yet Java8 compatible, you need to have Java8 installed as a default JVM for Websphere 8.5.5.14 "internal" requirements.
You cant have IBM's Java8 installed in Windows2008, which is mandatory for Websphere 8.5.5.14, that means you cant install Websphere 8.5.5.14.
In the end, I would like to remind you, that you can upgrade to a previous release: 8.5.5.13. Version 8.5.5.13 is 11 fixpacks newer than what you already have, maybe it will suffice for your needs.
Bottom line - upgrade windows to a current version that's not 11 years old. Or, better yet, put it on Linux. WAS is great on Linux! Red Hat, Suse, OpenSuse, Fedora, CentOS are good flavors.
I am trying to install SQL Developer on Windows 32-bit. Which requires Java 8 JDK, but only 64-bit and above versions are available in downloads. How can I download the JDK 8 32-bit version?
Here Is download Link
Java SE Development Kit 8u101
Go for Windows x86

Why does x86 represent 32bit
The best solution I could find for this is to download an earlier version of SQL Developer. I installed 3.2.2 version from the link below.

The international manufacturing company that I am working for is considering moving from Windows to Linux. The only reason for this that I am aware of is that the Windows automatic updates occassionaly cause some of their applications to fail. Apparently, they do not know how to turn this off. What other reasons they may have, I do not know (cost, the mobile phone effect?). My question is does Linux or some popular variant of Linux have a development environment equivalent in power and functionality to Microsoft .Net other than what Java offers, the Linux version of .Net (Mono) offers, or running Windows as a virtual machine on Linux?
It's kind of unclear what you are looking for... a Mono IDE that runs on Linux?
Have you looked at http://monodevelop.com/ ? It's not Visual Studio, but it's really not bad as IDE's go, and I think it's cross-compatible with VS project files. Should be packages available for any major Linux distro -- I know all the Debian based ones have it.
Mono's API is pretty compatible with .NET, though there are differences in some of the supporting libraries. There are apache extensions to do ASP.NET, but they are fiddly to get set up correctly.
It's a usable platform though, and it's possible to write Mono code that's 100% .NET compatible if you stay away from certain assemblies that haven't been ported yet.
I know I am 9 months late. You may have found your solution. You may look at IronPython.
I have searched high and low for a CI server or other source for a nightly build of OpenJDK7. I would like this so that I can track the bug fixes and performance improvements being made to hotspot for invokedynamic support.
I have found the instructions for building my own copy, but they are not for the faint of heart (me).
A pointer to an up-to-date build (and a source for more as the days & weeks progress) would be lovely. Anyone?
There are no known nightlies available publicly from the OpenJDK project
