The prefs tool doesn't change symbolic links. It simply affects GUI
tools launched either as applets or by double clicking a jar. Rather
than messing with your symlinks, just point your start scripts for
command line tools that need 1.4.2 to the explicit 1.4.2 install at /
System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/1.4.2/Commands/
java instead or /usr/bin/java. However, even with 1.5 installed on
Tiger Server, WebObjects apps start under the 1.4.2 VM, so you
shouldn't really need to do anything.

Hi Joe,
That was the first thing I did ..... and I even restarted afterward
and the symbolic links all stayed the same, plus java -version
still showed 1.5! So, I had my doubts after that and asked the list
about the symbolic links.
Thanks for helping Joe.
Regards, Kieran

The best way to do this is to run the Java Preferences application in
/Applications/Utilities/Java/J2SE 5.0
You select there the system default JVM (between 1.4.2 or 1.5)

Hi, I'm setting up a clean install of OS X Tiger and I want to
switch
to 1.4.2 VM as the default for the OS (and hence my deployed woa's).
I guess I just change the symbolic link for CurrentJDK to point to
1.4.2, .... but what is the Current -> A directory??
