The major new feature in the new Java2 1.3.1 VM for us server-side working
men (working on Win32 platforms), is the fix of the horrible "Java VM dies
when logged on user logs off" bug that plagues HotSpot Server 2.0 and Java2
1.3 VM's.
BUT what is the correct way to install the new (from JDK 1.3.1, build
1.3.1-b24) HotSpot Server VM on a Java2 Runtime?
The new Java2 1.3.1 JDK VM's are great, no problem when logging off the user
(when the -Xrs flag is set), but I cannot get this to worh in a comfortable
way with the Runtime download
If I just install the Java2 Runtime (which comes only with Hotpot Client
VM), and then install the old Hotspot 2.0 Server VM, which still is the
latest version downloadable from
http://java.sun.com/products/hotspot/index.html, I would introduce the bug
again, would I not?
I cannot find anywhere a place to download the new Hotspot Server VM (build
1.3.1-b24) from JDK 1.3.1 to install into the Runtime VM.
I have got this working, by manually copying the server folder from the bin
folder of the JDK 1.3.1 to the bin folder of the Runtime 1.3.1 installation,
but I am not comfortable with this approach. And definitely not comfortable
with distributing stuff from the JDK to my customers, which is in fact what
this approach means.
What am I overlooking/misunderstanding?
