for code compilation. If your minimum Java version is lower than the Java version used to run install4j,
runtime errors can occur if you accidentally use newer classes and method.
The drop-down list next to the JDK
option shows the name of all configured JDKs together
with their Java versions. In order to configure a new design time JDK, select the JDK
option,
and click on Configure JDKs. This shows the
Configure JDKs dialog.
The list of available design time JDK is saved globally for your entire install4j installation and not for the current project. The only information saved in your project is the name of the JDK configuration. In this way, you can bind a suitable JDK on another installation and on other platforms. If the JDK name saved in the project cannot be found in your install4j installation, the name will be displayed in red color with a "[not configured]" message attached. In that case, when clicking on Configure JDKs, you will be asked if you would like to configure this JDK.
