Re: [Tn5250j-general] Fw: Issue with sessions

2013-05-13 Thread Martin W. Kirst 
Hello Ewart,

indeed, including the Java runtime within the ZIP would be a good idea.
But, packaging Tn5250j with a JRE for Windows, 32bit, 64bit, Linux
and MacOS is a way to much work - considering the fact, that Oracle
provides ready to use Installer for every platform.
Additionally, I'm not sure about the legal consequences, if we would
package and ship Tn5250j and Oracle JRE bundled.

For testing purpose, you can always use Tn5250j.ZIP file, unpack it
in a separate directory and copy a JRE from another computer, which
has an equal Operating system. This is risk-free and doesn't infer
with your currently installed Tn5250j - except the user setting of
course ;-)

Regards
Martin

Hello Martin,

I was thinking of including the java run time objects that work with that 
particular version of tn5250j in the zip file itself. The java version 
that I have may not be compatible with tn5250j that is available.

I can do the steps you mentioned but I am afraid that if it does not work 
then I will loose the version that I am running & I don't want to work on 
Client Access.

Thanks & best regards
Ewart

Hello Ewart,

this is always possible, with a little manual work involved.
Just copy the JRE folder from a PC, where you've installed Java
and put it into Tn5250j folder.
Than create/modify tn5250j.cmd (assuming Windows) and put in something
like this:

jre\bin\javaw.exe -jar tn5250j.jar

That's it.

Hello Ewart,

this is always possible, with a little manual work involved.
Just copy the JRE folder from a PC, where you've installed Java
and put it into Tn5250j folder.
Than create/modify tn5250j.cmd (assuming Windows) and put in something
like this:

jre\bin\javaw.exe -jar tn5250j.jar

That's it.

Regards
Martin
