Question about CodeName One and Path Java Runtime

I simply need a response to a one fact question. If I have installed the latest free .nbm file for CodeName One into Netbeans 11, and am using, for example, the Java OpenJDK, does CodeName one use (outsource for a VM) my Path/Classpath version of java to run things from that virtual machine, or does CodeName One run virtualised mobile phone midlets from its own internal virtual machine?

When you run locally the local VM is used for debugging and simulating. When you need to build we use the native/custom VM. - Shai Almog

I suggest you to read here, there is response of Shai Almog on how Codename One works: https://stackoverflow.com/a/10646336/2670744

I also suggest you to read these FAQs: https://www.codenameone.com/faq.html

Said that, on your IDE Codename One uses the OracleJDK or OpenJDK version you installed when you run your apps in the Codename One Simulator.

About Netbeans 11 + the last OpenJDK, I suppose that their support is still experimental (maybe Shai can confirm or disconfirm this). However, I use Netbeans 10 + the last OracleJDK 8 (1.8.0_212): it works perfectly.
