Java 64 bit and installation dir

[gijs007]

I've noticed that this uninstall the 64bit version of Java but doesn't install it again.. it would be nice if it did (by default or as an optional command line argument)

Additionally I'd like to be able to specify an installation directory so that Java is always installed to the same directory and I don't have to constantly update my firewall rules and batch files for the java location.

This should be possible with: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/15292464/how-to-silently-install-java-jdk-into-a-specific-directory-on-windows

I've spent some time trying to find a way to auto update the 64 bit version
of java. It seems like oracle actively blocks attempts to automate the
download of the 64 bit version. As for your wanting to control the
installation directory, check out the version on github, it's only a script
and very easy to edit. Just change the line that says

start /wait %tmp%\java_inst.exe /s

The /s is the silent parameter. You can add whatever parameters you want
there

cant you use the installer located at http://www.java.com/en/download/manual.jsp for the 64bit?

I'll look at it closer later today. But that does seem like it now...
Before there was an "I agree" check box on that page and the URL to the
download was dynamically generated and expired in 1 hour.
