Java

Syncro SVN Client requires Java. If you use the native Windows installer, Syncro SVN Client will be installed with its own copy of Java. If you use the all platforms installer, your system must have a compatible Java virtual machine installed.

Syncro SVN Client only supports official and stable Java Virtual Machines with the version number 1.6.0 or later (the recommended version is 1.7) from Oracle available at http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index.html. Syncro SVN Client may work with JVM implementations from other vendors, but there is no guarantee that those implementations will work with future Syncro SVN Client updates and releases.

Syncro SVN Client uses the following rules to determine which installed version of Java to use:

  1. If you install using the native Windows installer, which installs a version of Java as part of the Syncro SVN Client installation, the version in the jre subdirectory of the installation directory is used.
  2. Otherwise, if the Windows environment variable JAVA_HOME is set, Syncro SVN Client uses the Java version pointed to by this variable.
  3. Otherwise, the version of Java pointed to by your PATH environment variable is used.

If you run Syncro SVN Client using the batch file, syncroSVNClient.bat, you can edit the batch file to specify a particular version to use.

Configuring Windows Terminal Server
