Hi,
Following up with your answer to my question regarding configuring
JRE for Netscape browser, how did exactly configure the 1.2.2 JRE for
Netscape? Did you mean adding it as a plugin? I checked with my collegue
here at Netscape and was told that the Netscape browser uses it's own
built-in JVM which is still 1.15 for 4.72 browser. The only way to
view the Java 2 features (such as swing) is to have java plugins (like
those from blackdown). I would be pleased to know another way to replace
Netscape's default JVM. Thanks,
Chunnuan
Netscape comes with an older, less stable JVM. The Java 1.2.2 JRE
claims to be an implementation of Java version 2, although the
versioning system is more obtuse than any I've seen before. :-)
The configuration was just running a self-extracting archive. It
did
the whole configure/install setup all by itself. Check out Sun's
java
page for the full info.
