Hi @AstroPixelProcessor! I need your support. Did you manage to package your app for MacOS with success?

Hi @fvarrui, thanks for asking.

Well not really, I have a commercial application and I really need to properly sign and notarize my application as you can understand.

I now can create a working DMG and PKG installers with your JavaPackager, but my application is more or less broken because of the use of the UniversalJavaApplicationStub which I really don't need I think, since I always include my own JRE of choice in the package.

My application uses the JFileChooser and all solutions offered on https://github.com/tofi86/universalJavaApplicationStub don't work if you sign and notarize with hardened runtime enabled and the right signing entitlements like enabling sandboxing.

Using a compiled version of universalJavaApplicationStub with the right signing entitlements is just not working in a Apple M1 mac mini with arm hardware. But on universalJavaApplicationStub they say it works.. If I sandbox, the application can't even start no matter what entitlements I include. So I suspect that they don't consider sandboxing and signing and notarizing?

Is there a way that you know can provide with javapackager to create a DMG without using the universalJavaApplicationStub ?
If so, that would really help me a lot at the moment ;-)

Oh, my issue for Linux DEB packaging is not in 1.6.6 yet I think? Also scheduled for 1.6.7 ?

Thanks a lot Francisco,
Mabula

@fvarrui i have opened an issue at:
tofi86/universalJavaApplicationStub#121
to check with them if it should work or if they would know why it does not work...

I am also investigating removing the JFileChooser from my project and implement the File DIalog which should not have the issue that I am facing.

@fvarrui I have good news, I have completely solved my issue with the stub by further modifying your macpackager
I will make an issue and a pull request again ;-) Ik can now hardcode sign with the right entitlements, and get JFileChooser to work using a binary universalJavaApplicationStub. It passes notarization and the notarized DMG works now completely.
