Java for Windows
A Java runtime environment must be installed before installing jLog. The newest Java 1.6 is strongly recommended.
Frequent upgrades to the newest revision is recommended as this usually provides both visual and performance improvements as well as bug-fixes.
Please note that you must install Java as a user with Administrator privileges.
Download JRE
The latest Java 1.6.0_05 can be downloaded here (7 - 18 Mb).
Select the Java Runtime Environment (JRE) variant (unless you are a professional needing
the extra functionality of the JDK for other purposes). It will install into C:\Program Files\Java when default values are specified.
Change Java version for jLog
You need to modify the jLog startup file after having installed a new Java version unless you are making a full install of the jLog application afterwards.
To change manually, locate the file 'conf/jLog.lax' where you installed the jLog application, i.e. typically C:\Program Files\jLog\conf\jLog.lax. Open it with a text editor and scroll down to find the entry:
# LAX.NL.CURRENT.VM
# -----------------
# the VM to use for the next launch
lax.nl.current.vm=C:\\Program Files\\Java\\jre1.6.0_04\\bin\\java.exe
You may place a comment sign in front of the current entry and append a new entry for the newest JRE:
#lax.nl.current.vm=C:\\Program Files\\Java\\jre1.5.0_09\\bin\\java.exe
lax.nl.current.vm=C:\\Program Files\\Java\\jre1.6.0_04\\bin\\java.exe
Save the file and restart jLog.
