User-agent: Mozilla Thunderbird 1.0 (Windows/20041206)
my last volley in this discussion:
1. As far as getting help to your desired operation, I cannot help. I
do not know how to change the preferred JVM programatically. If it's
not an officially documented process from Apple I would expect it to
change in future releases of OS X.
2. Do you think it makes sense for an application program to override
the user's JVM preference selection? especially when apple doesn't
think 1.5 is ready to be the platform default? Personally I'd be a
little torqued if an application did that especially without some kind
of warning.
3. I wouldn't call it lecturing. I'd call it healthy critique. In my
years of experience, it's never wise to assume that on a mailing list
that all the bases have been convered. The operation you want to do, in
my opinion, just sounds like a sketchy idea. That's why my teeth seem
so hard to extract :-) That's the beauty of java-dev too, you can always
choose to just ignore!

Why not attempt to detect what they have installed and then

I do that now. It reports 1.4 even if the users has 5.0. My detection
has to work from the website.
The only thing I can do is create a setup.dmg, that setups mac for my
WebStart the way the lates Java works.
So.... I thanks for the lectures, lets just assume that I have 20
years of hands on development (which I do) and want to do something
even if it's crazy.
Help me somone create a setup.dmg that sets the default
applet/webstart to 5.0 just like the apple preferences does. What
files does that thing actualy change so that I can do that.

ot: Why is this pulling teath... it's a very simple question and I
asked thousands of questions on verious mail lists and allways got help.
It's like "these are not the droids you are looking for". Yes, that is.
