I meant to reply to this too - I do run Mountain Lion, but normally only use j in a Terminal window (executing jconsole) - I tried that first and j602 started fine, but then I ran a verb I have defined -

version =: 3 : 'JVERSION, (10{a.), (2!:0 ''sw_vers''), 2!:0 ''echo `java -version 2>&1`'''

notice that it requests the version of Java available - that caused the system to reply:

iMi7:~ jkt$ j6
   version ''
Installer: j602a_mac_intel.dmg
Engine: j602/2008-03-03/16:45
Library: 6.02.023
ProductName:    Mac OS X
ProductVersion: 10.8.2
BuildVersion:   12C54
No Java runtime present, requesting install.

Then a system dialog popped up and asked permission to download/install about 60 megabytes of Java material (presumably from Sun/Oracle). After that, the j602 IDE seemed to work fine.

The root of this problem is that Apple has stopped distributing Java of any kind with Mountain Lion, also the "java preferences" application that was in Applications/Utilities is no longer a part of the system...

The bit in my "version" verb that caused this sequence of events was "java -version" and here is an example of executing that (after the requested install described above) at a Terminal prompt:

iMi7:~ jkt$ java -version
java version "1.6.0_37"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_37-b06-434-11M3909)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 20.12-b01-434, mixed mode)
iMi7:~ jkt$

Perhaps the "mixed mode" attribute is what allows this Java to support the 32 bit j engine. In any case j602, both jconsole (in terminal) and j602.app, seem to work fine in OS X 10.8.2 when Java is installed.

Hope this is helpful.

Hi

I sometimes use J602 version on MacOS Mountain Lion with Java Preferences 
setting 32bit CPU type precedence. However, recently Apple software update cut 
off Java Preferences application.  So we cannot use 32bit CPU Java.  I fail in 
starting J602 application with the  following message:

Load Library /Applications/j602/bin/libjnative.jnilib failed.


Does anyone know how to deal with this problem?
