+If your use-case requires a custom distribution (in the example, alpine-linux is used) or a version that is not provided by setup-java and you want to always install the latest version during runtime, then you can use the following code to auto-download the latest JDK, determine the semver needed for setup-java, and setup-java will take care of the installation and caching on the VM:
+
+```yaml

+      - name: fetch latest temurin JDK
+        id: fetch_latest_jdk
+        run: |
+          major_version={{ env.JAVA_VERSION }} # Example 8 or 11 or 17

 ## Testing against different Java distributions
 **NOTE:** The different distributors can provide discrepant list of available versions / supported configurations. Please refer to the official documentation to see the list of supported versions.
