I have made a Java application with Java 1.7 my problem is that it is not running on windows 2000. It is saying me "this is not a WIN-32 Application".

how can I run my application on it?

    Do you have Java runtime installed? How did you try to run the application? – Juho Aug 29 '11 at 11:00
  • @Juho No I run the application with a batch file. And in this batch file I start the application from a directory, in this directory is the java jre `set CDJRE=java_vm\jre1.7\bin start %CDJRE%\javaw.exe -Xmx512m -jar myapp.jar` – Neifen Aug 29 '11 at 14:26

It's not a direct answer, but Java 7 (at least the Oracle implementation) is not supported on Windows 2000.

Java 6 did support Windows 2000.

  • are there other implementations of it? – Neifen Aug 31 '11 at 10:15
  • @Neifen: Technically the OpenJDK is a separate implementations, but they are pretty much identical. I know of no other JVMs implementing Java 7 at the moment (which is to be expected, so shortly after Java 7 was defined/released). – Joachim Sauer Aug 31 '11 at 10:17
  • Okey.. so I think I have to wait a little until I can programm with Java 7 – Neifen Aug 31 '11 at 13:19
  • @Neifen: out of curiosity: who is open enough to switch to Java 7 now but still working with a 10-year old OS? – Joachim Sauer Aug 31 '11 at 13:21

    @Joachim Sauer: Win2k was a nice small OS to try the applications in the VM. – Mot Oct 17 '11 at 13:07
