3-4-3 Setting Up Java™ Web Start

Java™ Web Start (JWS) uniquely manages the version of each installed JRE. All JREs are usable by default.
Therefore, when there are multiple versions of JRE and some of these versions are the same as or higher than
the version required for a Java™ application, JWS determines which version of JRE to use. Because of this,
you must set up JWS so that it uses the correct version of JRE to execute Java™ applications.

To set up Java™ Web Start when different versions of JREs have been installed:

1.

Start the Java™ Web Start application manager.

2.

Select the File menu, and select Preferences.

3.

On the Java Web Start – Preferences panel, select the Java tab.

4.

Select the Find button.

5.

Select the Next button.

6.

Specify the JRE 1.4.2 installation directory, and then select the Next button. A dialog box displays,
notifying you that the JRE is found.

7.

Select the Next button. You return to the Preferences dialog box. Confirm that 1.4.2 is added in the Java
Runtime Versions list.

8.

In the Java Runtime Versions list, select the Enabled check box for JRE 1.4.2, and clear the check boxes
for other versions.

9.

Select OK to save your changes, and exit the Java™ Web Start application manager.

3-4-4 Clearing the Cache in Java™ Web Start

If a previous version of the Java™ GUI was installed, you may not be able to download the latest version of it,
even when upgrading Device Manager. In such a case, you must clear the cache in Java™ Web Start in order
to download the latest version of the Java™ GUI from the Device Manager server.

CAUTION:

The following operation clears all resources downloaded by Java™ Web Start. To start

applications using Java™ Web Start, you will need to download those resources again. The Java™ GUI will
be downloaded automatically when you log in to the Device Manager server.
