Specifying a JRE for a processing application
Apr 27th, 2007, 4:57pm  
Hi there,

I've had a look round the forum, but can't find the answer to something i'm struggling with.

I need to create a processing application, and specify the JRE that it uses. I know this is possible with a java app, so should be for a processing app in theory. Is there anything i can add to the lib/args.txt which would help? The app needs to run on a PC where Java isn't necessarily installed.

I tried adding the path to the system path, but that isn't the best option, as i need to be able to hand the installation of the application over to a non-technical person (unfortunately!)

Many thanks

Stephen

like the version of p5 that includes java, you can include a folder named "java" that contains the jre along with your exported application. this is done for just such occasions, where you don't want to require installation of any software, or trust that it'll be done properly.
