Can JWS be used as a multiple Java version management tool?

WinNT4 WKS with JRE 1.3.1 - 1.4.2 loaded on it using IExplorer or Netscape.
We don't have a need for the JWS download features because our clients (and their applications) remain static for the most part. However, we do require multiple JRE version support because our customers have written class/objet "fixes" (mostly for text rendering) and these fixes break if you try and run the application on a different version of Java from which it was written. Basically, we can't have a default JRE on each machine and hope that it will work with all customer applications. So we will load all necessary Java components on our workstations (in this case JRE versions 1.3.1 - 1.4.2). I know that browsers can be forced to load with a specific Plug-in version (providing it exists on the machine) through Object & Embed tags in the HTML and that standalone apps can be directed to the correct Java directory path. My question is, can JWS automatically identify the Java requirements of our customers applications and act simply as a multi-version management tool to provide the right JRE/Plug-In for either standalone or browser applications? Keeping in mind that all the JREs will be loaded on the workstions and it won't need to download any components from some site.
I've noticed that JWS identifies all JREs loaded on a machine in the Java tab so I'm wondering if it can "switch" the environment as needed for each application.
Does anyone know if I can use JWS in the scenario I described above? Thanks!

JWS can manage the multiple JREs installed if you run the application through a .jnlp. This can not "switch" the default JRE. It runs the application specified in the .jnlp using the requested version specified in the .jnlp.
JWS does not apply to applets. You should use the object tags as you mentioned below.
...can JWS automatically identify the Java requirements of our customers applications
No. You must determine this and setup the .jnlp appropriately.

I can`t open jar files though my java version is updated

Hello everybody, I`m using Macbook Pro 13` with Lion on it.
As it says in the title, I can`t open jar files though, my java version is updated.
It says, I shuld check the console.
Right now, my java version is, "1.7.0_15", and i`m trying to open a jar file created 3 days ago, by some developer.
Although, if im trying to open jar file created 1 year ago, it doe`s open.
Why is that? and, How can i fix it?
Thanks.

With Java 6 and prior, you had to enable logging first before you could view error messages in Console. I am guessing that you need to check the Java Control Panel to see if logging is turned on.

Multiple Java version on one Single Server

Hello All,
Linux RedHat 2.4.21-32.ELsmp
jdk1.3.0
j2sdk1.4.1_03
We currently have an application that only runs with java 1.3.0, but also we have other application that need to be on java 1.4.+.
What would be the right approuch in order to have multiple Java versions on a single server.
TIA,
Bruno

I am pretty sure you can do that.
I have done this with AccessGates and a Webgate is just an AccessGate with extra features. I am pretty sure we have done this on Apache with a webgate in different directories. Makes logical sense that it would work.
Thanks,
Scott

Mail version 4.3 (1081/1078) can't be used on Mac OS X Version 10.6.4" Why?

You need to look for more than one copy of the Mail app on your computer. What has resulted is a "hybrid" version that never existed. We have seen this a few times before, and it likely results from something being in the wrong place during the update. Probably the best way to handle is to either find another version on your computer some place, or delete the current version in the Applications folder, install only the Mail app from the installation discs, and immediately apply the latest Combo Update to advance it the proper version.

Awesome, thanks for the suggestion. I'll try it when I get home this evening.

"IPOD can not be used because it requires iTunes version 7.6 or later"

I keep getting this message: "IPOD can not be used because it requires iTunes version 7.6 or later". I have intstalled version 8.0 but it still will not show this new 3rd generation nano in the source list when I plug it in. We have to other ipods (original video version and 2nd generation nano) and they work fine. Please help if you can. My 10 year old daughter has this new gift that we can't figure out!!

I am having a similar issue. My kit is as follows:
Laptop with Windows XP Professional Service Pack 1
iTunes 7.5
3rd Generation 8Gb iPod Nano (v1.1.2 PC)
5th Generation 30Gb iPod with video (there are no issues with this)
A while back, on connecting the iPod Nano to my PC, i was prompted to upgrade the software. Clicked "yes" and the software installed. Now when I connect the iPod Nano to my laptop I get an error message in iTunes saying "iPod cannot be used because it requires iTunes version 7.6 or later". I am unable to download any later versions of iTunes, however, as they require Service Pack 2 for XP (and I cannot install this for a number of reasons).
Is there any way I can revert the Nano to its previous software level as I am currently unable to add/remove any music to it?

The build I have is the released build of Mail. I reinstalled it as directed and it didn't help. That indicates that the problem is with my version of OS X.
The build you have is the released build of 10.8.5. You reinstalled it as directed and it didn't help. That indicates it is a problem with your version of Mail.
The above are examples of flawed logic.
Seriously now. Since you obviously don't know what a Combo Update is, I will tell you. A Combo Update is short for a COMBINATION of Updates. That means that there is MORE THAN ONE update in a Combo Update. It is, therefore, quite proper to speak of "one of the Combo Updates". For people whose first language is not English and are not familiar with its subtle nuances, perhaps I should have said "One of the updates contained within the Combo Update was"
"There aren't "versions" of the combo update, unless Apple releases a revision"?
This is plain silly. It means "There aren't versions unless there are"
Also I didn't use the word "version". See above for the explanation of what I DID say.

Erase your drive and reinstall correctly, stop messing about with incremental patches. The routine you need is BERR (backup, erase, reinstall, restore) or just stay as yu are, it is entirely up to you.

Can DataObjectOperationsByName be used to retrieve multiple rows?

I am attempting to use the DataObjectOperationsByName webservice Get method to retrieve a list of rows based on a column value, but based on my work so far, it looks like this may not be possible. Can anyone confirm this?
I have implemented some BAM counters and intervals in my BPEL processes, which has automatically created the "/Samples/Monitor Express" path with the COMPONENT, COUNTER and INTERVAL data objects in BAM after deployment of the BPEL process to the soa-server. These measurements are successfully being populated whenever the BPEL processes are run.
I have a number of BPEL processes - two of which are called "getClient" and "createClient", so I am attempting to use the following webservice payload to retrieve all "createClient" rows from the data object using DataObjectOperationsByName Get method:
<soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:bam="http://xmlns.oracle.com/bam">
<soapenv:Header/>
<soapenv:Body>
<bam:Get>

<bam:keysCSV>COMPONENT_NAME</bam:keysCSV>

<bam:xmlPayload>
          <![CDATA[
          <DataObject Name="COMPONENT" Path="/Samples/Monitor Express">
          <Contents>
          <Row>
          <Column Name="COMPONENT_NAME" Value="createClient"/>
          </Row>
          </Contents>
          </DataObject>]]>
     </bam:xmlPayload>
</bam:Get>
</soapenv:Body>
</soapenv:Envelope>
However, this only returns the first row that it finds that matches the COMPONENT_NAME of createClient, where I know that there are many more rows matching that value.
Does anyone know if this sort of query is possible using this webservice?
Cheers,
Marc.

Welcome to the Apple DIscussions
No, it can't be used with multiple files. This is true in iPhoto and iTunes as well.
When you unchecked 'Copy files to the iPhoto Library Folder...' you assumed responsibility for the file management. This is exactly the kind of thing that is very easy when iphoto does the file management. (Drag the pics to the iPhoto trash, empty the trash, files gone from iPhoto and HD)
As the entire philosophy of iPhoto is to leave the Original alone, yes, the changes to titles, dates etc are only reflected in iPhoto and can only be applied to the File on export.
What might work is to name the files prior to import. Using a batch renamer like FileList (http://www.petermaurer.de/nasi.php?section=filelist) to assign a basic sequential naming structure: TuesdaysPics.1, ,2, ,3... this might make it easie to track the pics down by noting the numbers - and using Spotlight.
Best I could come up with.

How to use multiple Java versions on my machine

Using DRS to specify Java version when executing JNLP file.

We have an application that executes from a JNLP file that we are told is version sensitive. We have a rule set created for a number of apps that work just fine to meet this goal. However, when creating a rule to execute this JNLP application we are having issues getting it to work. To simplify the process we created a certificate hash rule for this application and when reviewing console\trace we can see it correctly identifying and executing under the Java 6U29 environment. The issue is that even though 6u29 is being invoked it does not work (merely displays a "application error" message). However, if I instead launch the JNLP file using the Javaws.exe in the 1.6.0_29 folder the app loads fine. When comparing behavior with the rule set environment and a 6u29 only environment I saw some peculiar entries.

So it appears that the 6u29 version of Javaws.exe is getting called however some of the configured paths are being set to the 8u25 path. Not sure if its a cause but does seem to be relevant since on the exact same system if I run the JNLP specifically with the 6u29 exe it works as expected. Any assistance would be appreciated.

..how do I specify a specific range of JREs in the jnlp file so that JWS picks up a JRE from that range only? So if 1.5.0_07, 1.5.0_17 and JRE 6 are installed, it should run the app on 1.5.0_17.From the JNLP Specification
*4.6 Java Runtime Environment*
Several JREs can be specified, which indicates a prioritized list of the supported JREs, with the most preferred version first. For example,
    <java version="1.3" initial-heap-size="64m"/>
    <java version="1.2">
      <resources> ... </resources>
    </java>So your app. would need more along the lines of..

    <java version="1.6+" />Actually you'd need the list of 1.5 versions reversed. Well, you get the idea hopefully. For more on versioning, see my [JWS versioning page|http://pscode.org/jws/version.html].

How can you upgrade the Oracle's db java version?

Hi - Is there away to upgrade the database's java version? We are on UNIX with Oracle 8.1.6. I would like to upgrade it to Java 1.4, if possible. As far as I know, we do not currently use java for anything. We like to use java stored procedures.
Thanks

Is it possible (and if so, how) to determine the version of Java used to compile a class file?
I've recently had to install both JDK 1.5 and JDK 1.4 on my system, and although I've got my paths set, etc.
I'd like to check my class files after compiling so I can rest assured that they were compiled with the appropriate version.
Can this be done? How?
Thanks.The answer is yes and no. You can check the VM compability/compliance version of the compiled class. But e.g a JDK 1.5 compiler can compile classes that are compatible with a 1.4 VM (but that doesn't mean that it is guaranteed to execute on that VM without any errors)
