Hi, We are attempting to respond to as many end-user requests as
possible for this upcoming 2.1.2 GEP release, and one of those
requests is for Java 1.6 support. In order to make this happen I
would like to make Java 1.6 JDK a prerequisite for building the GEP
2.1.2. This is a build-time prerequisite only -- it will support
both 1.5. and 1.6 runtime environments. Does anyone have any major
objections to this ??
I understand general concerns for Java 6 on Mac OS X. Has anybody
tried building GEP using Java 6 on Mac OS X?
Donald, care to elaborate on what your concerns are?
We've had a lot of users who've had startup issues due to running with
Java 6. Seems like a good idea to address them.
