Does Fedora support a Java that still supports AWT

I have an Java application that still require AWT. I need this application for performance analysis of power8 applications.

Is there a Java I can install on fedora that still supports AWT.

AWT appears to be included in OpenJDK, so if you need Java 8 (which appears to have been supported on AIX for power8), you might try sudo dnf install java-1.8.0-openjdk then setting your IDE/JAVA_HOME/alternatives to point to it.

(For good measure, the package list appears to confirm AWT is included in Fedora’s OpenJDK8 packaging as well:

/usr/lib/jvm/java-1.8.0-openjdk-1.8.0.332.b09-1.fc36.x86_64/jre/lib/amd64/libawt_xawt.so
/usr/lib/jvm/java-1.8.0-openjdk-1.8.0.332.b09-1.fc36.x86_64/jre/lib/amd64/libjawt.so
