3.0 JMSToolBox with another JRE - jmstoolbox/jmstoolbox GitHub Wiki

Running JMSToolBox with another version of Java bundled with JMSToolBox

Currently JMSToolBox for Windows is bundled with Oracle Java 8. It is possible to run JMSToolBox with another flavor of Java (Must be Java 8+) as follows

Linux, MacOSX

• Add a Java 8+ JRE to the classpath and start JMSToolbox. It will work out of the box except if the jars used to access the Q providers do not support Java 8.

Windows

• Edit file ** <JMSToolBox install location>\JMSToolBox\eclipse.ini**. At the very end of the file, add the location of the javaw.exe executable from your Java 8+ installation like this (must be on two lines!):

-vm
C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre1.8.0_92\bin\javaw.exe 

• start JMSToolBox
