I find myself needing to create a Windows installer for a Java 8 application. I have seen a few other issues, including #302 . While I know this sort of depends on the javapackager, i'm wondering its possible to produce an installer that does the following (in addition to copying the necessary files):

  1. Allows the user to accept a privacy policy
  2. Bundles Java, OR
  3. detects its existence on the machine (as well as detecting other dependencies)
  4. Creates new directories in AppData for non-privileged logs
  5. Makes a web request to verify a license

I see this link for java 9, but do any of these options work for java 8?

From what i've seen, it seems possible to include a custom WSX file or otherwise - does this allow you to essentially create the entire UI passing this file in? Or only small things (like setting the installation directory?). Thanks!
