I have compiled java openjdk babylon jdk project using a recent java-24 ea20 for windows in msys2, having a working jdk binary directory package. the package binary executable java -version outputs adhoc-babylon 24 ea20 as the version. same official java-24 ea20 jdk loads up in eclipse just fine, but the custom compiled jdk based on that same jdk says "target is not a JDK root system library was not found" error. I dont know what the exact difference is and what are the requirements, but at least the custom jdk is missing the source package.

Are the jdk requirements too strict in the current eclipse 2024-09. or something else not going right?
