I've just installed Oxygen 7.2 on a Windows Vista sytem. I'm running JRE 1.5.0_08
I get the following JRE error messages:

Now Microsoft do say this JRE is incompatible with Vista, but I've been running Eclipse with it for 2 weeks without a problem, as well as a few webstart apps.

Any suggestions? I guess it's probably a JRE problem, and I'll have to wait til sun delivers a Vista compatible _09 release....?

Eclipse uses a native library for the user interface instead of Swing which is a Java library.

There is no other option.

Hi,

Just in case it is of any use, if you start Oxygen from the command line with the oxygen.bat file it should work ok.

Well at least it does for me.

Using JRE 1.6.0, but I guess earlier versions would still be ok.

Sorry, that worked for Oxygen 7.2 but not for 8.0

Did you try with the Beta 2 of the JRE 1.6.0 ? It is compatible with Windows Vista. The previous error was obtained with JRE 1.5.0 which is not compatible with Vista.

Hi Sorin,

I am running the JDK 1.6.0 Release Candidate.

Actually with oxygen v8 this presents a different error.
The JDK/JRE 1.6.0 RC is the only JRE I have installed at the moment unless there are some other previous versions lurking around that I didn't manage to remove

Anyway, not to worry I'll just run it in an XP virtual machine until things are good on Vista.

Cheers,
Paul

Specify the full path to the jre/bin/java.exe file of the Java 1.6.0 Beta 2 in the oxygen.bat script located in the oXygen install folder to make sure oXygen runs in Java 1.6.0 Beta 2 and start oXygen from command line using the command
Do you get the same error ?

Hi,

Just wanted to say that the release of Java Virtual Machine 1.6 available now for downwload fixes the last reported exception (there were problems with that release candidate).
We tested Oxygen with it and did not encounter any problems.

Best regards,
