VE Installation Problem [message #124553]

Hello!

I installed VE today. The good thing is, that I am able to run the wizard to create a visual class, but then I got a failure message like "creation of element failed ... (Unsupported major.minor version 49.0)"

What's the problem. I'm very frustrated...

Thanks in advance
Robert

This means your code was compiled using Java 1.5 byte code but it is
trying to be executed on a Java 1.4 VM.

Thanks for the tip.

My problem was that an Oracle client runs on my computer, which uses a version of JRE 1.4. So this version was used by the whole system allthough I have installed JRE 1.5.

For those who face a simlilar problem. I copied the path to the bin directory of my JRE 1.5 installation at the beginning of the path variable. Furthermore I created the environment variable called JAVA_HOME and set the value to the path of the base directory of my JRE 1.5 installation (not the the child bin directory!).

Kind regards
Robert
