Re: [ jEdit-users ] jedit 5 java version reported wrong

[Dale A. <da...@gr...>]

How are you starting jEdit? I would bet you somehow have a script that is
pointing at your old java version. You can always write your own start up
script. Below is what I have in mine, you could use this as a starting
point and put in the full path to your Java 7 installation.

#!/bin/sh
export JEDIT_HOME=~/apps/jedit/current

# Antialias fonts everywhere possible.
ANTIALIAS_ALL="-Dawt.useSystemAAFontSettings=on -Dswing.aatext=true"

# this one for general usage
java ${ANTIALIAS_ALL} "-Djedit.home=$JEDIT_HOME" -jar
"$JEDIT_HOME/jedit.jar" -reuseview "$@"

# this one for debugging
#java ${ANTIALIAS_ALL} -Xdebug
-Xrunjdwp:transport=dt_socket,server=y,address=8001,suspend=n -Xmx512m -jar
$JEDIT_HOME/jedit.jar -reuseview > /dev/null 2>&1 &
