</supportedRuntimes

Hereyoucanseethatonly"SAPAG"and"SunMicrosystemsInc."fromolderJavareleasesare
included.Andthat'stheproblem,asnewversionsarereleasedbyOracle.Sovendordiffersand

Solution:

Beforewebeginit'sbesttobackupwholeNWDSdirectoryandalso

1)LocatefilewithJVMcheckingmodule:
"<SAP
NWDS>\plugins\com.sap.ide.jvm.check_1.0.0.140103091951.jar"
Asmentionedbefore,versionnumbercanbedifferentinyourrelease.

2)Createbackupcopyofcurrentfile.Callitforexample
"com.sap.ide.jvm.check_1.0.0.140103091951.jar.BAK".

3)Copyoriginalfiletotemporarylocation.Iused
"C:\Temp\com.sap.ide.jvm.check_1.0.0.140103091951.jar"

4)ExtractfilesfromJAR.JARfilesarebasicallyZIPfiles.Iused7zipprogramtoextract
sourcetofolderbasedonfilename:
"C:\Temp\com.sap.ide.jvm.check_1.0.0.140103091951\".

5)Locateandeditconfigurationfile
"C:\Temp\com.sap.ide.jvm.check_1.0.0.140103091951\config.xml".Add
vendornode"OracleCorporation"(partingreencolor).Justcopyexistingnodeand
replacevendorname.

<supportedRuntimesshutdownIfNotMatches="false"warnIfNotMatches="true">
<vendorname="SAPAG">

</supportedRuntimes>

6)Packdirectory.Packwholecontentofdirectoryfromstep5)backtoZIPformat.
Changeextensionto.JARinyourfavoritecompressionprogram,orrenamenewfilefrom
".zip"to".jar"aftercompressionisdone.Nowwehaveournewcorrectedfilefor

7)Replaceoriginalfile.Copyfileoveroriginalone:
