Re: Will software update "Java for Mac OS X 10.4, Release 6" break if "Java SE6 Release 1 DP6" is already installed ?



Thanks Scott ... that's good news.

I should have thought to look for release notes.

I just happened to see the release mentioned in a routine Software Update
pop up dialog, and followed the link from the dialog to the article on
the Apple site, but there was no further link to release notes, and it
didn't occur to me to poke around the developer site manually as I
obviously should have.
