Java 12 is end-of-life and there's no point in investing work to maintain it.
Note that this doesn't actively remove any kind of support - people can still use
java_tools_javac12in their WORKSPACE file and use their own OpenJDK 12 version as the host_javabase and it will continue to work just as before.It just means we no longer test changes against it, release new java_tools versions for it and no longer provide bundled
http_archivedefinitions for OpenJDK 12 (which is the right thing to do, as we don't want to point our users to unmaintained OpenJDK versions that might eventually be found to contain security issues).
