Support for GraalVM

[morki]

Description:
It would be nice to support GraalVM Community Edition JDK.

Justification:
It is already available in Github Actions virtual environments.

Are you willing to submit a PR?
Sorry but no, I don't have enought knowledge.

@morki , have you tried the community action for GraalVM?
https://github.com/marketplace/actions/setup-graalvm-environment

[morki]

Yes, but with this action we can use matrix builds for many JDKs and soon it will hopefully be support for Gradle / Maven caching here.

Just for the record, here is a link to yet another graalvm/setup-graalvm action, provided by graalvm team.

Although official setup-graalvm action definitely would handle graal-specific extensions better, is someone interested in graalvm support for setup-java anyway? I think it doesn't make too much sense to support additional GraalVM components, but I'm about to open PR that implements basic GraalVM JDK install.

I am also very interested in seeing setup-java provide graalvm support, so it can be used in matrix builds to easily test it against other JDK providers.

@zharinov is willing to provide a PR implementing this, but wants a signal from the maintainers (e.g. @dmitry-shibanov @IvanZosimov @marko-zivic-93) of this repo that there actually is interest in such a contribution. can one of you guys please confirm this? thanks a lot in advance!

Hi, @sebthom 👋 Thanks for the comment! We are currently investigating the license of the GraalVM JDK. As soon as we finish this process we will get back to you with additional information.

Hi, @ALL 👋 Unfortunately, during the investigation it was decided not to add support of GraalVM to setup-java action. The reason for this decision is existence of the official GraalVM action: https://github.com/marketplace/actions/github-action-for-graalvm
I'm going to close this issue, if you have any question feel free to ask them.
