+
+This installs to `/usr/lib/jvm/java-17-openjdk/OpenJDK17U-jdk_x64_linux_hotspot_17.0.9_9`
+and configures alternatives from that Java home.
+
+To choose a stable install directory for a custom archive:
+
+```ruby
+openjdk_source_install '17' do
+  url 'https://artifacts.example.com/java/OpenJDK17U-jdk_x64_linux_hotspot_17.0.9_9.tar.gz'
+  checksum 'aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa'
+  source_install_dir 'jdk-17.0.9+9'
+end
+```
+
+Source archives must contain a single top-level directory. The resource extracts archives with
+one leading path component stripped so the archive contents land directly in `java_home`.
