IMPORTANT: Updated Product Requirements: JRE 1.3.1 or later
Affected products: upCast 4.0.x, downCast 1.0.x
2004-02-06

We have just become aware of an incompatibility of our products with Java 2 Runtime Environments earlier than 1.3.1. Our products will not function properly with Java 1.2.2 or earlier.

The problem may manifest itself (among possibly other symptoms) by requiring you to re-license the application at every launch, even if you have copied the license to the Licenses folder, and WordLink not functioning properly. The issue is with java.net.URL.openStream() not handling file://-URLs with quotes in it (e.g. '%20') correctly. You are not affected by this problem if the paths on your system do not contain spaces or characters that need to be quoted. There is currently no known workaround other than using Java 1.3.1 or later.

The currently delivered installer does not allow choosing the Java VM to be used if you have installed more than one on your machine. It is therefore necessary to verify under Help > System Information... that the Java version used is 1.3.1 or higher.

We will update our product specification pages and the product manuals accordingly to reflect the new product requirements, and will update our installers to allow for manual Java VM selection at installation time.

Please check back in a few days for updated downloadables.
