Bug summary

I found the Java base container images named mcr.microsoft.com/vscode/devcontainers/java:17 contains only JDK 11.

$ docker run --rm -it mcr.microsoft.com/vscode/devcontainers/java:0-17 bash
root ➜ / $ env | grep JAVA
JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/msopenjdk-11
root ➜ / $ ls -al /usr/lib/jvm

openjdk version "11.0.16.1" 2022-08-12 LTS

OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM Microsoft-40648 (build 11.0.16.1+1-LTS, mixed mode)

I didn't notifythe bug since I used local image cache long time for my devcontainer environment. But when I tried to rebuild the container image without cache, I got a build error today which said "hey, this container does not have java 17 but java 11".

I think the images must contain Java 17 to set up for Java 17 development environment. Isn't it expected behavier?

Thank you,

[RyuSA]

Quick workaround: use a semantic version tag. current latest version is 0.205.5
https://github.com/microsoft/vscode-dev-containers/blob/main/containers/java/history/0.205.5.md

$ docker run --rm -it mcr.microsoft.com/vscode/devcontainers/java:0.205.5-17 java -version
openjdk version "17.0.4" 2022-07-19 LTS
