Intralink Java question

Intralink Java question

I'm coming up against some limitations in my intralink scripting (we're on
3.4) that are caused by the Java version being at 1.4.2. Is it possible to
upgrade the version of Java that Intralink uses, even if only to 1.5?

Thanks.

Hi Lyle -

I know what you mean about finding a pre-1.5 JDK.

A few years ago, I was able to write my Java code on a v1.5 JDK but
specify
v1.4 as the target runtime environment. Are you able to do that?

You should be able to set this option in your IDE if you're using one. If
not,
the javac option is "-target 1.4".

You don't specify which build of Ilink 3.4 you running however 3.4 M070 uses
Java 1.6.x I believe.

You can upgrade the jre in the Intralink install however you will find that
some items in the interface that will no longer work. I know this because I
tried it several times. The upgrade is simple:

1. rename ptc's jre directory to jre.original
2. unzip the 1.6.x jre runtime
3. rename the jre1.6.0_24 directory to jre
4. try it
