Hey All,
Is it possible to package java 1.5 VM with my java application such that
I can install it without having to concern myself with the
prerequisites? I don't want to require the user to get java updates
through the software updater. Also, my clients may not have their macs
hooked up to the internet. I'd like to be able to package the VM and
any prerequisites it may need on a disk or dmg. Has anyone had any luck
with this?
I'm on tiger 10.4. I know that if you start from scratch with a new
fresh 10.4 install, the first prerequisite is java 1.3.1 and 1.4.2
release 2 update. Then it looks like the next prerequisite is an OSX
Combined update, which requires a restart (ugh). Then, finally after
downloading these two components (and rebooting) I am able to download
the J2SE 5.0 Release 4 update.
I do have a DMG of J2SE 5.0 Release 2 (I believe it's Release 2), but
it's not release 4. It has the frustrating prerequisite of the 1.3.1
and 1.4.2 updates and it doesn't set java 1.5 to be the system default,
Thus I really want the latest 1.5 JVM.
Has anyone had any luck with installing individual software update
components?
Thanks in advance,
Matt
