This has nothing to do with SEGGER JLink. I wonder which is older.
SEGGER JLink is waaaay older. jlink was introduced with the Java Module System in Java 9, released 2017, so still relatively „new“ in terms of Java‘s lifespan.
My dumb*s though it was about Segger JLink also lol
Interesting thing. We also have native-image from graal, but that is a commercial project that you have to pay for to get all the features.
Jlink doesn't produce native images, as its name implies it is a Java linker, for producing custom runtimes, removing everything else that isn't used.
