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'.

JDK for Mac ReadMe. This release of the JDK is a developer-only version. You can use it to create Java applications and includes the new JavaFX 2.2 client stack.
- How to download and install prebuilt OpenJDK packages JDK 9 & Later Oracle's OpenJDK JDK binaries for Windows, macOS, and Linux are available on release-specific pages of jdk.
- To install the JDK on macOS: Download the JDK.dmg file, jdk-14.interim.update.patchosx-x64bin.dmg. Before the file can be downloaded, you must accept the license agreement. From either the browser Downloads window or from the file browser, double-click the.dmg file to start it.
- Download Java Liberica JDK for Linux, Windows, macOS. It is built from OpenJDK, tested and passed the JCK provided under the license from OpenJDK.
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.
