Re: Update JRE in WDSC

Hi Don,

There are 3 main Java Platforms:  Java ME (Micro Edition), Java SE 
(Standard Edition) and Java EE (Enterprise Edition).  The Java SE is the 
version used most commonly for standalone Java applications and this is 
what WDSC is run with.  Web applications require Java EE.

If you create a Java project in WDSC then it will be associated with the 
Java SE shipped with WDSC.  If you create a Web project then WDSC also 
associates the project with one of the embedded WebSphere Application 
Servers so it picks up the extra jar files to be Java EE compliant.

Re: [WDSCI-L] Update JRE in WDSC







                                 Don,

I have a question about the JRE's. We are currently using WDSCi 5.12 and 
notice that the compile (eclipse) JRE is not as complete as the server 
Runtimes version (ie 5.0 or 5.1). We added an new link to the server JRE 
to use the Crypto class for example. I can get you more specifics or we 
can take this off mail list but just didnt understand why this is. Im new 
to Java so if its a stupid question I apologize.

Hi Karl,

WDSC 6.0.1 only supports up to Java 1.4. The next version of WDSC will 
support Java 1.5 (a.k.a. 5.0). In the meantime you could download the 
recent Eclipse 3.2 release and do your Java development there (not an 
ideal workaround I know).

[WDSCI-L] Update JRE in WDSC

Does anyone know how to update the JRE in WDSC to 1.5? The only options I
have are 1.2, 1.3 and 1.4. I want to utilize generic collections but these
are only available in 1.5. Thanks.
