Antivirus and Java version when exporting

edited December 2017 in Using Processing

I tried exporting a simple sketch and sharing with my brother, who has Java 9 sdk and jre installed on his computer. It wouldn't run unless he installed Java 8. Is there any way to make it java 8 and 9 compatible without bundling all the dependencies? Bundling turns a tiny sketch into a 150mb monster that only runs on 64 bit Windows.

Also, avast always thinks programs made with Processing are viruses. Is there any way around this? As it stands, if the only way to share the program requires you to download the exact same version of Java, and it gets flagged by antivirus... it makes it really hard to share apps made with processing with others.
