visualvm not starting on JDK 24

[abique]

Hi,

visualvm isn't starting on my macOS computer.

abique@Alexandres-MacBook-Pro ~> cd /Applications/VisualVM.app/Contents/MacOS/
abique@Alexandres-MacBook-Pro /A/V/C/MacOS> ./visualvm 
WARNING: package com.sun.java.swing.plaf.gtk not in java.desktop
WARNING: package sun.awt.X11 not in java.desktop
Error occurred during initialization of VM

I get the same error if I download visualvm from your website or install it via brew.
I've tested it with oracle-jdk 23, 21, and 17.

System info: macOS Sequoia 15.3.2

EDIT:
I've managed to run it using:
./visualvm --jdkhome /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/default/Contents/Home/

Thanks,
Alex

This is caused by running VisualVM on JDK 24.
