Which java for OS X 10.9

6 from apple or 7 from oracle?
setting up a new macbook pro. apple recommends installing java 7 from oracle for 10.9. launching illustrator brings up a dialog to install java 6 from apple. I've read that illustrator will not recognize java 7. what is the best option? stick with 6? can 7 be made to work? is 7 more secure? install both?
thanks,
David

Restart the machine with the Command and S keys held down, and type the following commands into the prompt in order:
mount -uw /
cd /Users/username/Library/
mv Preferences/ OldPrefs/
exit
When done, your computer should start up and log in normally. Replace username with the short name of your normal user account; if you've moved your home folder, change the path to point to the home folder's location. The command sequence needs to be entered exactly as specified, including spacing and capitalization. After doing this, some of your account's preferences will be reset to the defaults.

Which Java for Lion?

What version of Java is currently the best for OS 10.7.xx Lion?

You can use Java 6 from Apple website or Java 7 from Oracle. Java has got a lot of security problems, so use it only if you need it

Which java for ADS?

Hey guys,
We are looking at implementing ADS (adobe document server) - however - are currently running ECC6 (no java stack).
We are under the impression that all we need the WEBAS to do this.. however, noticed webas is only valid to release 630 - if we go to netweaver 7 2004s - I belive we get webas 640. (is this the newest compatible version)?
My qustion is, what is the best java platform to install ADS - if they are only going to use this.. Is Netweave 7 2004s recommended, or should we stick with webas 630?
Thanks everyone
Richard

Hello Richard,
ECC6 and Netweaver 04s is 700 based system, you will need an J2EE with Version 700 to use the ADS.
In rel 700 the ADS is already included in the J2EE standard installation.
Best regards,
Dezso Pap

Java 8 SE Embedded download - which version for my RPi?

One thing I struggle with is knowing which download for my RPi.
I keep reading I should use the hard floating point version. That said, here's the only Java 8 SE Embedded version I see with HardFP: ARMv7 Linux - VFP, HardFP ABI, Little Endian1
On my RPi, here's the output from "uname -a"
> Linux bsrpi 3.10.34+ #661 PREEMPT Thu Mar 27 00:36:02 GMT 2014 armv6l GNU/Linux
Will the HardFP version on the download page work on my RPi? It appears to be arm6.
The only thing I see available with ARMv6 is: ARMv6/7 Linux - VFP, SoftFP ABI, Little Endian2
If you have the answer or even refer me to a good site that explains the differences, I'd be very grateful. If not, I'll just keep pulling out my hair! :-)
Thanks for any help you have,
Brent Stains

I received help from Stephen Chin on this! Thank you Steve. You can see his excellent work here: Steve On Java
I also found some information from Hinkmond Wong's blog: https://blogs.oracle.com/hinkmond/entry/even_quicker_guide_to_install
I'm pasting a modified version of the conversation and information here for other wandering souls!
METHOD 1 - download & deploy, options for compact profiles
Most Raspberry Pi distributions have been hard float for a while... To check, look for the following file:
/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf
If this exists, you are running hard float.
Once you have your Pi on a hard float build, grab the latest Java 8 from here:
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jdk8-downloads-2133151.html
Grab the first one titled "jdk-8-linux-arm-vfp-hflt.tar.gz"
For doing compact profile work to learn how SE Embedded is used (and compact profiles work) go to the downloads on this page: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/embedded/downloads/java-embedded-java-se-download-359230.html
and start with this one: ejdk-8-fcs-b132-linux-arm-vfp-hflt-03_mar_2014.tar.gz (ARMv7 Linux - VFP, HardFP ABI, Little Endian)
then use jrecreate to shrink it.
METHOD 2 - use apt-get on the Raspberry Pi, full "embedded" version of the JDK
From Linux command line >> sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install oracle-java8-jdk
Note: see Hinkmond's blog post and an excellent explanation in the comments section on the meaning of SE Embedded
Enjoy!

Using Java for scripting in games - which technology to use?

Hi, I'm currently in the process of implementing a java scripting implementation for a 3D game engine. Any suggestions on which java technology to use? It will handle high level game specific logic and a gui. So there will be a native implementation of awt created as well. I'm starting off with win32 and will port to mac and linux later.
I'm thinking J2ME-CDC, but then theres CDLC, the personal edition, and so on. CDC and CDLC are nice since the jvm code is included but the CDC one needs to be ported to win32 (anyone already do this?)

J2ME is designed for small consumer devices such as mobile phones, pda, pagers, set-top boxes and so on.
You'r designing something for windows, mac and linux so I'd suggest standard edition rather than micro edition.
I'm confused as to what you want to do though.
Also, "porting" a java program shouldn't really be an issue (unless you've used lots of JNI or Runtime stuff).
Basically though I don't really understand what you want to do, I did have some idea, but then you started talking about Micro Edition.

I recommend Maple or Matlab, or if you don't have any money to spend: you could try Maxima: http://maxima.sourceforge.net/ I heard some good things about it.

HT5243 It says on the "Java for Mac OS X 10.6 Update 8" pg that this download is for all users and supercedes all earlier versions. Yet to the right is says you HAVE to have 10.6.8 as a requirement. WHICH is it? Is it for all versions of 10.6 or not?

And question is STILL not answered. WHICH is to be downloaded and used?
I would like an answer.

Thank you for the clarification! It is really kinda circle-speaking to state on an information page to put forth info people need in that manner. It really does add to the confusion and frustration when you need a simple,
straight answer, such as you gave, and you dont get one. Kind of like that . . other... software company....
This rabbit hole still continues, though. I'm going to ladder it out, just to see for myself:
Have: MacBookPro / 2.4 GHz/ Intel Core i5/ running OS X 10.6.3 -
Need: latest version of Java, so Flash update can be loaded;
                              (want html5 to be the standard so badly, but client wants Flash)
Attempted: Tried to find Java for Mac OS X 10.6 Update 2 on Apple website. No Joy.
        Found:   Update 2 is proper update for Mac OS X 10.6.3. Could not find download on Apple website;
                       - No Joy.
Attempted: Tried to find Java for Mac OS X 10.6 Update 8. Half Joy. Confusing, no straight info.
        Found:   In order to install update for Java, must update OS X from present 10.6.3 to 10.6.8
Attempted:   Tried to find update to OS X 10.6.3 to 10.6.8. on Apple website.
how far does the rabbit hole go?

Which Java program do I use for this game?

Okay, I'm programming a video game for my High School grad project.
Now, I'm just wondering, which Java program do I use for it? It will be 2-d, I'd like it to have SNES like graphics, and it will be a platformer, but kind of like Metroid. You will be able to change forms, from ice to water to a gaseous state, and you have different powers according to which form you're in, like forming an ice bridge in ice form, slipping through cracks in water form, and rising higher in a gaseous form.
Thank you for your help.

no, not if you did not code java before.
There are IDEs like Eclipse arround but that are not good at beginning because they are quite complex and don't take away the coding.

Which Java Platform for beginners?

Which Java would be best for beginners to the language?
The students have had C++ and Visual Basic. Thanks!

Which Java would be best for beginners to the
language?
The students have had C++ and Visual Basic. Thanks!That depends upon what you mean. I'll assume that by "which Java", you really mean which Java IDE. Correct me if I am wrong.
I have found that JBuilder Foundation (free) is an excellent IDE and provides all the capabilities that new Java developers typically need. You can go beyond its limitations by purchasing the JBuilder Professional or JBuilder Enterprise editions, depending upon your needs.

Can I download java so I can upload photos and which version for I phone?

i want to upload photo to a site but they use java , can I download java and any particular version to allow me to upload
Photo also some site use adobe flash content is this compatable? These questions may be daft but I don't own a pc and am just trying to catch up by using I phone

Sorry, but no, there is no version of Java for iOS nor, no version of Flash for iOS either. You'll need to use your computer, either directly or via an app that allows you to take control of your computer from your iPhone, to use any site that requires either.

Help - I cannot set the Default Java for Browsers

Hello:
I'm running Win 7, the Home Premium, 64 bit flavor. I have IE 8 and FF 3.5.8 installed. FF is the default browser. I've installed Java and when I go to the test page: http://www.java.com/en/download/help/testvm.xml
I get a message which says: "Something is wrong. Java is not working."
HOWEVER, if I open a command prompt and type java -version, I get this:
C:\Users\dogzilla>java -version
java version "1.6.0_17"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_17-b04)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 14.3-b01, mixed mode)
So I went to the control panel app, the advanced tab, and expanded the node for Default Java for Browsers. I have 2 problems.
1. The checkbox for Microsoft Internet Explorer is greyed out; I cannot change any settings here at all.
2. I checked the checkbox for Mozilla Family. Then, when I click OK, I get an error message which states:
"Unable to change browser settings. Please check that Mozilla or Firefox or Netscape is properly installed on the system and/or that you have sufficient permissions to change system settings."
Since I'm writing this message to the forum using FF, I'm going to guess that I have the browser installed correctly. So that leaves me with a permissions problem -- which I don't doubt. I have no idea where to start looking though. Especially considering I can run the files in the bin directory from a command line without any problems.
Does anyone know how I can solve the two problems I described in this thread? Suggestions are greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

Thanks for the reply!
I tried running as admin and no luck. Still experiencing the same problems.
I've did some more reading (much more in fact for what this problem should be worth) and other forums mention that on 64 bit Windows systems, both the 32 bit and 64 bit JRE need to be installed.
When I was running Win XP, I could just download the SDK, create an environment variable, and I was good to go. Now, it looks like if I just install the SDK, I need the JRE plugin download for just the browsers -- what a ridiculous waste/duplication!
Thanks again for your help.
