Changing the JRE or JDK Used by Designer
By default, Software AG Designer uses the JDK that the Software AG Installer installs as described in the PDF publication Installing Software AG Products. You can modify the Designer configuration to use a different JRE or JDK. If you want to switch back to the JDK installed by the Software AG Installer, it is located in the Software AG_directory \jvm directory.
Important: If you switch to a non-default JRE or JDK, apply maintenance updates from the appropriate vendor on a regular basis, as you would for any JREs and JDKs you install yourself.
Note: Software AG tests products only with the JDKs installed by the Software AG Installer. If you change to a different JDK or JRE and encounter problems, Software AG may require you to reproduce the issues with the JDK that is installed by the Software AG Installer.
* To change the Designer JRE or JDK
1. Locate the following file in your Designer installation:
Software AG_directory \Designer\eclipse\eclipse.ini
2. Open the file in a text editor.
3. Locate the -vm parameter and modify it to contain the directory path to the JRE or JDK you want to use.
4. Save the file and restart Designer.
