Hi,
I would like to discuss here, if we drop the support for Java 5 and Java
6 for AOO installation on Windows.
Important note for discussion: it is all about platform Windows.
On my work to update the AOO build environment for Windows I recognized
that it is hard to get an official JDK 1.5 (Java 5) or JDK 1.6 (Java 6)
for Windows. Thus, I decided to go with JDK 1.7. The resulting AOO
installation on Windows no longer works together with an JRE 6. It does
not recognize an installed JRE 6 as an valid Java runtime environment.
Thus, it comes into my mind to drop the support for Java 5 and Java 6
for Windows.
If Java 6 has been dropped and Java 7 wasn't found on the system,
wouldn't it be better to replace the general MsgBox "There was no Java
environment found" by "Java 7 or higher wasn't found"?
Otherwise people who know that they have 1.6 installed may be confused.
Regards
Peter
