How to programatically know version of JVM?

We can JVM version with the command 'java -version'. Is there a way to display this information from within Java code?
TIA,
Byju Joy

How to install new version of jvm in Oracle?

We are using Oracle 9i which is internally using jvm ver 1.2.2. It has a bug 'ByteCode Verifier', so we need to replace the jvm's ver with 1.2.2_011. Can someone help me figuring out how we can uninstall the old version of jvm and install the new version as required in the database.(jvm being used for java stored procedures)

Hello ec:
Welcome to Apple discussions.
As far as I know, you cannot download Safari and reinstall it successfully. Install Safari from your software install DVD and then run software update.
I do not use Hotmail, so I have no information about that platform.

How to programatically get a Java version (Not default one) ?

Hi, Java Guru,
Does anyone know how to programatically get a Java verstion through its full path ?
For example, there are 5 JVM installed on a user's machine:
JRE1
JRE2
JRE3
JRE4
JRE5
How do you know the Java version under JRE3 ?
From command line, you can simply type
JRE3/java -version
But how to programtically ? (I thought about running a system call, then check the standout, but feel it is not reliable, is there any other way to do it ?)
Thanks in advance.

No. That is not waht I want. Using System.getProperties() only can get the default Java information.
Assume there are many Java version installed on a user's machine and we know all java Path.
JRE1/bin/java
JRE2/bin/java
JRE3/bin/java
JRE4/bin/java
JRE5/bin/java
JREn/bin/java
JREn/bin/java is the latest one installed, that is, default Java.
I want to know the JRE3 version before I use it, then how do I know JRE3 version PROGRAMTICALLY ?
Anyway, thanks for response.

How to know the current jvm name executable ?

Hi,
I should want know what is the current jvm executable, from a java program. For exemple c:\foo\bar\bin\java.exe, or /home/foo/bar/java_1.6/jre/bin/java and other.
With system properties, I can know java home, version, vendor etc of JVM, but how I can know "bin\java.exe" or other ?
Thanks.

Yes.
I see java.runtime.name=Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment, I see the classpath, I see java.runtime.version=1.6.0_14-b08, I see java.home=/home/herve/java/jdk1.6.0_14/jre, but I don't see the name of java programme.
For me it is something like {java.home}/bin/java. I don't see that in system properties.

How do I know which is the correct location of the JVM?

How do I know which is the correct location of the JVM? What do I add to my PATH environment variable? I'm trying to install Sybase ASE on my Sun Fire v480 SPARC box, but keep getting the below error...
*"A suitable JVM could not be found. Please run the program again using the option -is:javahome <JAVA HOME DIR>"*
So I did the following...
STEP 01) To confirm that Java is installed, I ran the java -version command. I received the following output...
bash-3.00# java -version
java version "1.5.0_17"
Java(TM) Platform, Standard Edition for Business (build 1.5.0_17-b04)
Java HotSpot(TM) Server VM (build 1.5.0_17-b04, mixed mode)
STEP 02) Then I tried to locate the location of where Java was installed...
bash-3.00# which java
/usr/bin/java
STEP 03) Then I tried to confirm if it was a symbolic link or not...
bash-3.00# ls -al /usr/bin/java
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root other 16 Jun 24 01:54 /usr/bin/java -> ../java/bin/java
STEP 04) The symbolic link doesn't seem to match any of the output below. Which is the correct location / path of Java (JVM / JRE)?
bash-3.00# find / -name java -print;

Adobe Cloud has 2 different Muse programs.... how do I know which one is the newer better version?

So I am new to Muse, and my Adobe Cloud has 2 different programs from Muse... how do I know which one is the newer better version?
One Must program (Muse CC 2014.2) has a black background when working on it... it looks like other Adobe programs such as Photoshop.
The other one is light color (Muse CC) very similar to the black color Muse on functions.....
One of the difference I notice is that the light color Muse has a few widgets in the library, while the black background Muse seems to have an empty library
So... why are there 2 different Muse programs in my Adobe Cloud?

Hi
The latest version of Muse is 2014.2, so you need to uninstall another version of Muse manually.
regarding the items in Library, you can add items in your library manually, as shown in this article
Adobe Muse Help | Organizing and reusing design elements using Library panel
Please let me know if you have any other query.

Right now I'm using version 3.6 somthing, but I would love to update, but I'm nervous cause last time I did my Add ons and Ext that I use didn't work. How would I know if my add ons and exts are compatible with a new version?

I'm using version 3.6.24 (whatever the latest update was that just took place 2 days ago for the 3.6 Version) What I would like to know is if I update to a newer version like 7 or 8, whichever is not a Beta, how will I know if my add ons and extensions will work? Last time I had updated to a newer version, non of my favorite add ons or extentions would work, so I went back to 3.6. Can you please help cause something needs to be done cause my Firefox crashes a lot when Adobe is being used.
I also don't know if any of my add ons are crashing my computer. Either Adobe crashes or my whole computer crashes. Can someone please help me?

you can find which addon are compatible with Firefox 8 by here

How do you know what version Mac OSX is on ANOTHER drive?

How do you know what version Mac OSX is on ANOTHER drive without starting that drive
and seeing the system profiler? In fact, because the drive wont start up, Now I am wondering if it is pre-intel. ? CMD-I doesn't do it. Thanks

Why mess with this? Well, I got the HDDs and the enclosure from my previous PPC, so I'd like to make use of it all without $pending again.
I don't see any problems with using the card and drives on your new Mac. Hardware is too pricey to just leave behind if you can't help it. With the new drivers I suspect you'll be able to use your drives, I just don't think you'll be able to boot from them if the interface card requires drivers. They should still be very fast storage devices, and probably reliable due to the ongoing support the vendor has provided.
I went through the same type of issue when I bought my Dual G4 1.42 Tower (upgraded from a Quadra 840AV ). Several of my devices were SCSI (I was into SCSI Wide/Fast drive arrays at the time for video capture), and I was able to use an Adaptec card for scanning for several years with Jaguar and Panther. I'd spent quite a bit of cash to ensure high quality and performance and didn't want to loose all of the investment. Eventually the SATA hard drives and other USB and Firewire replacements became so cheap and performance improved enough that loosing SCSI with Tiger was not a big deal. I do think I should get about 5 years of hardware compatibility with most products and I keep older Mac's around for dedicated services as long as they aren't a costly maintenance issue.

How do you know what Mac Mini version you are getting?

I heard that as of September 2005, Apple had completly updated there Mac Mini's.. I heard that they put in a 64mb 9200 Graphic Card, and all had Bluetooth and Airport.. But, how would I know that what I am getting is the updated version? Compusa's Mac Mini has the July 2005 config posted, but no September updated specs..
Thanks! If I can get this issue resolved, I might be picking up the September 05 Mac Mini. I'm new, so I hope I posted this on the right place!

Will it be just luck if I pick up the updated version
or does the box state the actual spec's in the
store?
If not, then this really will get madd. I was
thinking about switching over to Mac from WXP but if
they can't market/organize there specs better then
Apple won't get my XP to Mac switch. Plain and simple.
All you can do is assume that the specification Apple quote for the mini, and that is printed on the box, is the specification of the system you are buying. If it turns out to be uprated, you are fortunate, but otherwise it'll be exactly what you paid for.
Clearly, if Apple were ONLY selling uprated models, the specification they quote would be changed to reflect that fact.
The decision to purchase a system should be based on whether the model available meets your needs. As to Apple not being able to organize their specifications better, you might consider the possibility that the reason they don't quote better specifications for minis being sold is because not all minis being sold meet those improved specifications.

How do you know the version of a JAR file ?

how do you know the version of a JAR file ?
is it what is written on MANIFEST.MF ?
for example i have a JAR file
whose MANIFEST.MF has this
Manifest-Version: 1.0
Created-By: Ant 1.4.1so, whats the version of this JAR ? 1.0 ?

anyway, that was JSTL..jar.
Now, come to another JAR file....
whose MANIFEST.MF has......
Manifest-Version: 1.0
Created-By: Apache Ant 1.5.1
Extension-Name: Struts Framework
Specification-Title: Struts Framework
Specification-Vendor: Apache Software Foundation
Specification-Version: 1.1
Implementation-Title: Struts Framework
Implementation-Vendor: Apache Software Foundation
Implementation-Vendor-Id: org.apache
Implementation-Version: 1.1
Class-Path: commons-beanutils.jar commons-collections.jar commons-dig
ester.jar commons-logging.jar commons-validator.jar jakarta-oro.jar s
truts-legacy.jarso, How do you believe whats the version now ? do u go with the comment "Manifest-Version: 1.0" or "Specification-Version: 1.1" ?
definitely, you would go with the "Specification-Version: 1.1" and declare this JAR as STRUTS 1.1
hmmm, so, if nothing is mentioned like above should we follow the MANIFEST version as the JSTL version ? in my earlier example i did not find any comment on ""Specification-Version" ......so , if anybody gives me that JAR , how do i decide whether its 1.0 specification or 1.1 specifucation compliant ?
can you tell whats the JSTL version of my earler example JAR file ?
