Bug ID: 115002
Summary: Include required bitness information into "Java
missing" messages on Windows
Product: LibreOffice
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: Windows (All)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Keywords: needsUXEval
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: LibreOffice
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Strings for missing or invalid Java (see STR_WARNING_JAVANOTFOUND and friends
in include/svtools/strings.hrc) don't contain information about which bitness
should be the required Java. But at least for Windows, this is essential, as
endless duplicate questions on AskLibO show. As Oracle's Java site doesn't make
it obvious for non-geeks that Java offered for download isn't the only one
possible choice, people don't realize that we don't need *any* Java, but of
specific bitness.
The proposal is to add the bitness information to "Java missing" messages on
Windows, like this:
> %PRODUCTNAME requires a 64-bit Java runtime environment (JRE) to perform this
> task.
> Please install a 64-bit JRE and restart %PRODUCTNAME.
The 64-bit (32-bit) should only be added to Windows builds, as it seems that
there's no such problem on other OSes.
