Issue in setup-java with java-version 8.472.08.1 with corretto distribution

[FranciscoCunha97]

Description:
Hello,

I'm using this setup-java action with Corretto distribution, and I need to use the java-version 8.472.08.1 that is the latest version in the Corretto-8 documentation (https://github.com/corretto/corretto-8/releases), but I'm facing some issues related to this version.

How can you use this version?

Thank you!

Hi @FranciscoCunha97, thank you for reporting this issue!

The value 8.472.08.1 is not a valid SemVer notation. For more information on valid SemVer notation, please visit https://semver.org/.

Currently, the setup-java action only supports specifying major versions for Corretto (e.g., 8, 11, 17, etc.) because the official Amazon Corretto JSON feed only provides major version releases. This is also mentioned in the setup-java documentation.

If you need the latest Corretto 8 release, please set:

with:
  distribution: 'corretto'
  java-version: '8'

The action will automatically resolve and install the latest available Corretto 8 version. We’ve tested this, and it’s currently picking up the latest version (8.472.08.1). Attached is a screenshot for reference.

Hope this helps! Please feel free to reach out if you have any further questions.
