I'm new to CrossOver and am just beginning to check out the free demo.
I have a Java app, in the form of a .jar file, that runs very slowly under Mac OS Java and much better under Windows, via VMWare Fusion/XP.
I'd like to be able to ditch VMWare Fusion and run the app(let?) under CrossOver but can't figure out how to do this.
I've installed a Java 6 XP bottle twice by two different methods.
I dl'd Java for XP off of Oracles web site and used the CrossOver installer. No probs.
I used the "Community Supported" Java 6 installer that came with the CrossOver demo. No probs.
But I have no idea how to tell CrossOver to use its XP Java environment/bottle to run my .jar file.
..I think you have to use the 'Run Command' option for this; select
the bottle you have jre6 installed into, then navigate the the java.exe
file and open it, then in the stringbox containing that command, append
your launch option... ie; java.exe -jar jar-file ... if such works, you
can save the command to your menu items ...
Cheers!
