not finding all JDKs
I have a machine which has a number of JDKs/JREs installed. The default one (and the one in the PATH) is JDK 1.3.1. There is however a registered installation of JDK 1.4.2. When I try to run the native launcher and require JDK 1.4+ it fails with a message that my JVM isn't recent enough.
Hello,
Yes, you are right. Currently the native launcher will pick the default JRE and check its version only.
A better algorithm would be to enumerate all the installed JREs and pick the appropriate one as the newest in the required minVer maxVer range.
We'll definitely have this implemented for 1.1 and if you send me an email at [support at advancedinstaller dot com] I can give you access to an early build in just a few days.
