Add JRE/ Run Old JRE - 6u10 :)
Sunday Jun 15, 2008
Yesterday, I have started making a presentation on J2SE 6u10. And I will be like delighted again seeing the new features of Plug-in which we called Next Generation Plug-in. Some of the common problems I used to face while doing my job :
Installation and Un-Installation of JRE's - This was a region of major concern. Most of the time I never install JDK or JRE, I love to untar or unzip it, so that it will not play with my registry. But the problem with those when I run Applet. Untar JDK/JRE not used to be a suitable candidate for applet because it takes only the installed JRE. But now, we can point our applet to the untared/unziped JRE and it will all work. Uncheck all the other JRE's which is not required, run the applet. It will all rock :)

I have clicked on the Find button and added the JRE 1.7. Now, I unchecked all the other JRE and ran my applet. It will run on JRE 1.7 (Remember IE6+ and FF3 or + only)
Here is the snap shot of old Java Control Panel:

And now we will also get rid of running applet on older installed JDK/JRE. Initially it used to be if I have to check one applet on 2 different JRE, I have to install and uninstall it again. But now it all work with one checkBox option :)
