Minecraft Forums

My question is simple. I was curious as to how to use the Java that minecraft now uses in the minecraft program folder, on other things such as .jar executables. Specifically forge .jar stuff like the server. I still seem to need to use the actual official Java from the website. Is minecraft using a different type of Java that is unable to be used on anything else. When I set the program to run the Java from the minecraft folder it simply doesn't open/run.
