On my High Sierra Mac


java --version 

gives


java version "1.8.0_172"

Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_172-b11)

Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.172-b11, mixed mode)

but in Oracle's documentation and list of downloads I see references to versions that are much higher, notably 9 or even 10.


What is the most up to date version of Java intended for use with macOS High Sierra?
