Does the Runtime Plug-in for HP-UX, Java™ Edition, version 1.2.x support Java™ 1.1? |
|
| A: |
|
You can run applets written for Java™ 1.1 or 1.2 with the Runtime Plug-in for HP-UX, Java™ Edition, version 1.2. In both cases it will use Java™ 1.2. Note: If you have been using Java™ 1.1 with a Swing version prior to 1.1.1, the applet will not work with Java™ 1.2. You need to migrate your applet to the new javax.swing package name. |

| Q: |
|
Which 1.2 JVM is used by the Runtime Plug-in for HP-UX? |
|
| A: |
|
The Runtime Plug-in v. 1.2.2.x for HP-UX supports both the Classic and HotSpot JVMs. By default, the HotSpot JVM is instantiated, because of its better performance benchmarks. For instructions on how to enable the Classic JVM instead of the default HotSpot JVM, see "Enabling the Classic Virtual Machine" in these release notes. |
|
| Q: |
|
How do I find out which JDK is used by the Runtime Plug-in for HP-UX?
|
|
| A: |
|
In the browser, you can either select the "About Plug-ins" menu for the full name of the Plug-in (including the version of the JDK) or bring up the Java™ console window that lists the Java™ version. |
|
| Q: |
|
Can I have several Runtime Plug-ins for HP-UX installed? |
|
| A: |
|
No. Each Runtime Plug-in for HP-UX supercedes the previous one. |
|
| Q: |
|
Does the Runtime Plug-in for HP-UX, Java™ edition, support multiple JDKs? |
|
| A: |
|
No. The Runtime Plug-in for HP-UX, Java™ edition, supports only the JRE it is packaged with. For example, the Runtime Plug-in for HP-UX 1.2.2.06 supports only JDK 1.2.2.06. |
|
| Q: |
|
What happens if an HTML page contains an applet that requires Java™ 2 and I don't have a Runtime Plug-in for HP-UX, Java™ edition, installed? |
|
| A: |
|
If the HTML page was modified with the htmlConverter, Netscape Communicator will load the HP download page from which you can download the appropriate JRE containing the Runtime Plug-in for HP-UX. You will then need to install the JRE, run the installation script and reload Netscape Communicator with the initial page of the applet which required Java™ 2. |
|
| Q: |
|
How do I set up HP 3D Technology for the Java™ platform to work with the Runtime Plug-in for
HP-UX, Java™ edition? |
|
| A: |
|
You need to make the Java™ 3D libraries available to Netscape. To do this, set symbolic links or move your Java™ 3D libraries under your Netscape home directory.
To set symbolic links, do the following:
ln -s /opt/java1.2/jre/lib/ext/j3dcore.jar \
$HOME/.netscape/java/lib/j3dcore.jar
ln -s /opt/java1.2/jre/lib/ext/j3dutils.jar \
$HOME/.netscape/java/lib/j3dutils.jar
ln -s /opt/java1.2/jre/lib/ext/vecmath.jar \
$HOME/.netscape/java/lib/vecmath.jar
ln -s /opt/java1.2/jre/lib/PA_RISC/libJ3D.sl \
$HOME/.netscape/java/lib/PA_RISC/libJ3D.sl
ln -s /opt/java1.2/jre/lib/PA_RISC2.0/libJ3D.sl \
$HOME/.netscape/java/lib/PA_RISC2.0/libJ3D.sl
To move your Java™ 3D libraries under your Netscape home directory, do the following:
cp /opt/java1.2/jre/lib/ext/j3d*.jar \
$HOME/.netscape/java/lib/
cp /opt/java1.2/jre/lib/ext/vecmath.jar \
$HOME/.netscape/java/lib/
cp /opt/java1.2/jre/lib/PA_RISC/libJ3D.sl \
$HOME/.netscape/java/lib/PA_RISC/
cp /opt/java1.2/jre/lib/PA_RISC2.0/libJ3D.sl \
$HOME/.netscape/java/lib/PA_RISC2.0/
