Re: JRE in a subdirectory

Hi,

1. the application needs Java 5, which is not included in OS X.
2. if I don't bundle the JRE I cannot assure the the application is run with the JRE that it was tested with. therefore the best way is calling a fixed java.exe in a subdirectory.

Hi,

We never package a separate JRE on MacOS X. Only on Windows and Linux.
The reason is that you know which JVM is installed on MacOS X XX. Ok, there are updated to Java. But your installer should be able to determine which update of the JVM is installed on MacOS X.

On Windows and Linux, no VM can be installed, only Microsofts VM is installed, JRE 1.3.0, 1.4.1, 1.4.2 and 1.5 are installed. There is a reason to pack a separate JRE to those systems.


Regards,

Cyrill
