Java
There are 2 Java development kits available with Scoop.
OpenJDK is the default, and can be installed with scoop install openjdk.
Oracle's JDK is also available, but not being open source, it's in the java bucket. So to install it, you'll need to first run scoop bucket add java, and then you can install the Oracle JDK with scoop install oraclejdk.
Java apps in the main (default) bucket will typically depend on openjdk. The reason Scoop defaults to openjdk rather than leaving the decision of JDKs up to the user is that we want to make it "just work" when you install a Java-based app like Ant.
You can however switch to Oracle JDK with scoop reset oraclejdk, assuming you've already installed it with scoop install oraclejdk.
You can switch back and forth between the 2 JDKs at any time.
There is a java bucket maintained by @se35710 for more info go to the scoop-java project.
