Java jdk 1 5 free download - Apple Java for OS X 10.5, Apple Mac OS Update 8.6, Apple Mac OS Update 9.0.4, and many more programs. Scroll down until you see 'Eclipse IDE for Java Developers' and click where it says 64 bit under Mac OS X. You will see this window: Click on the yellow download button. If asked, click on 'Open with Archive Utility (default)' and then click OK.
I am trying to create my first macro with LibreOffice version 6.1.6.3 on a MacBook Pro running Mac OS X 10.14.5. When I select menu item 'Tools | Macros | Run Macro' I get this popup box: 'LibreOffice requires Oracle's Java Development Kit (JDK) on Mac OS X 10.10 or greater to perform this task. Please install them and restart LibreOffice.' However, the title of the popup box is 'JRE Required'.

Java is a runtime environment maintained by Oracle that you must install on your Mac to be able to run applications written using the Java programming language. Moreover, Java allows developers to make apps available on multiple operating systems at the same time because Java-based utilities will run on any platform that can integrate the runtime environment.
I found a potential answer to this problem in the question 'Mac Java problem when creating a database' but the detailed directions talk about installing the JDK. The error messages I got in the popup implied that I need both the JDK and the JRE.
When I install the JDK will I also get a copy of the JRE? What are the current instructions for installing the needed Oracle libraries if I want to use macros?
Thanks, bobby

Yes. As I understand, Oracle doesn’t provide a JRE alone. Sorry, I can’t give any other pointer as I don’t use Mac.
@gabix There is a JRE for Mac OS X (current versions filename is
jre-8u221-macosx-x64.dmg
), but LibreOffice can't deal with that.I meant the current Java, not the old Java 8.
E-bot, why not repost it as an answer?

Since I work with Windows and not with Mac, I only saw it as an additional hint. And the question was already marked as solved. If it still helps, so much the better. Have all your joy in it.
