This action sets up a java environment for use in actions by:
- optionally downloading and caching a requested version of java by version and adding to PATH. Default downloads are populated from the [Zulu Community distribution of OpenJDK](http://static.azul.com/zulu/bin/)
- registering problem matchers for error output
# Usage
See [action.yml](action.yml)
Basic:
```yaml
steps:
- uses: actions/checkout@latest
- uses: actions/setup-java@v1
with:
java-version: '11.0.4' // The Java version to make available on the path. Takes a whole or semver Java version, or 1.x syntax (e.g. 1.8 => Jdk 8.x)
java-package: jdk // (jre, jdk, or jdk+fx) - defaults to jdk
architecture: x64 // (x64 or x86) - defaults to x64
- run: java -cp java HelloWorldApp
```
From local file:
```yaml
