jcontrol binary missing: Openjdk7, Openjdk7-jre, Openjdk8, Openjdk8-jre

Hi,

Unfortunately I'm unable to locate the jcontrol binary.

Research (Google) and handbook has given no glues so far.

If someone could point me in the right direction?

Thank you.

SirDice, thank you, unfortunately, that's not what I'm looking for. jcontrol used to be the java control panel to customize all security relevant options, like disabling OCSP.
 
I can't tell, I normally build OpenJDK with X11 off (headless)[*]. Which means it never installs any of those GUI tools on my systems.

[*] I need OpenJDK for Puppetserver, PuppetDB, Jenkins, etc. Those can all use the "headless" install.
 
SirDice thanks again, I guess thats the advice I was looking for. It's a desktop system and I use the binary packages, but maybe openjdk lacks X11 support .... :-/
 
but maybe openjdk lacks X11 support
Not by default. So the packages should have it enabled.

java/openjdk8
Code:
X11=on: X11 (graphics) support

Have you tried looking at the output from pkg info -l openjdk8? That will give you a list of all the files it installs.
 
No, just tried now, unfortunately without success. I did find /usr/local/openjdk8/. -type f -iname \*jcontrol\* but nothing came up.
 
itweb-settings (icedtea-web)had been my first choice, but the security options are somehow very limited compared to jcontrol.
