Unless you know your customers very well that isn't a road I would follow. I can hardly imagine cutomers that are willing to loose there primary os just to view a product catalog. That happens at least for the time you run the cd. (No quick copy and paste to the mail reader, no quit look at the internet site to order online, ...)
Or do you know a solution that just opens a linux window without reboot under any os that might be used to view the cd. (VM Ware would allow such thing but, that requires that the customer alrady has it) I would recommend to define the java runtime environment as minimal requirement for the customer. (This way you don't need dll's, registry changes etc). Than you can deliver tomcat standalone with a pure java in-memory database and precompiled jsp's on cd > -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- > Von: David Goodenough [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Gesendet: Montag, 15.
