### My system requires Java 8 (or another Java) to be on the PATH for other software to function correctly. How can I get Ghidra to run without altering the PATH?
Ghidra uses an existing Java runtime on the PATH (Java 1.7 or later) to locate a version of Java that Ghidra supports (in this case, Java 11). If Ghidra fails to find Java 11 in the standard locations, you will be prompted to enter the path to Java 11's installation directory. Note that this path should be Java's installation directory (also called "java home"), not the _bin_ directory found within the installation directory.
### Where is the complete Ghidra source code? ###
This repository is a placeholder for the full open source release.
Be assured **efforts are under way** to make the software available here.
In the meantime, enjoy using Ghidra on your SRE efforts, developing your
own scripts and plugins, and perusing the over a million lines of Java and
Sleigh code released within the initial public release.
The release can be downloaded from our project homepage at www.ghidra-sre.org.
Please consider taking a look at our contributor guide to see how
you can participate in this open source project when it becomes available.
