Can't run zipeg on Java 7u4 #41

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
Hello!
I've tried run zipeg on Windows 7 and Windows XP with Java 7u4 and it's not 
worked! :( It's running and placed to task manager but nothing happens.

On other PC with Windows 7 and Java 6u27 it's worked fine!

I'm having the same problem. Is it not working in all versions of java 7? or 
just in update 4?

I have beta that seems to be working with Java 7.
If you find a minute to try it and let me know if
there is any remaining problems I would appreciate it.

Thanks in advance

Zipeg still has this problem with Mac. After installing Oracle Java in 10.8 
(10.8.4) I get prompted that zipeg needs "A java 6 SE runtime".  Java 6? Oracle 
Java is 7... on apple it's troublesome to install "apple java" and oracle java 
(No oracle java 6). Help???

after some research there is still a workaround for Mac:

This workaround for java is no good; Mavericks doesn't /have/ an 'apple' java, 
you must install java from oracle. Java is currently 1.8.x on OSX 10.9.x. 

Please, can this code be updated to actually use java made sometime after the 
extinction of the dinosaurs?

made me laugh, although I should'nt because I'm wondering the same issue...
this is really annoying. Here I see that java 6 which zipeg is requesting for, 
is more than two years old, for sakes.. the workaround suggested should work 
though

For software, outdated for more than two years is a security and compatibility 
issue.

Imagine if in another year and a half the workaround was to use windows xp?

From Oracle's site:

Where can I get the latest version of Java 6?
We highly recommend downloading and installing Java 7. The latest release for 
Java contains many new features, performance enhancements, and bug fixes to 
improve the running of Java applets or applications. 

Java SE 6 End of Public Updates Notice
Oracle no longer posts updates of Java SE 6 to its public download sites. All 
Java 6 releases up to and including 6u45 have been moved to the Java Archive on 
the Oracle Technology Network, where they will remain available but not receive 
further updates. Oracle recommends that users migrate to Java 7 in order to 
continue receiving public updates and security enhancements. 

In our environment, we're disallowed from running non-secure (re: anything but 
the most recent release of) java, adobe, office, or other software. We'r 
attracted to using a archive manager like zipeg, but of course this issue is 
preventing that from being a possibility.

Mavericks and Yosemite don't have java 6 capability (if you do a clean install 
instead of an upgrade), so there's no 'workaround' that works around for them.
