About the Choose Java VM Panel

InstallAnywhere 2021

In addition to the JVM selection decisions that the installer and its launchers make, you can provide your end users with the option to choose a VM that they want your product to use by adding the Choose Java VM panel to your project. The Choose Java VM panel supports the following range of choices for your end users:

Choose a valid JVM found by the installer's JVM search.
Choose the bundled JVM (only shown when a bundled JVM is installed).
Search for a JVM in non-standard locations.
Browse for a JVM on the local system.

The Choose Java VM panel enables all these options by default. The Choose Java VM panel always searches the local system for JVMs and presents those JVMs that match the selection criteria to the end user. The options for choosing the bundled JVM, searching non-standard locations, and browsing for a specific Java executable file are represented by check boxes in the Choose Java VM customizer.
