Specview is 100% written in Java and is distributed in standalone application, and applet, formats.
The application version requires that either the Java Development Kit (JDK) or Java Runtime Environment (JRE) be installed in your system and accessible from your path. For the applet version, see here.
Specview Version 2.17.6 was tested under these configurations:
OS | Version | Java Version |
---|---|---|
Mac OS | 10.10.4 | 1.8.0_51 |
Mac OS | 10.10.5 | 1.8.0_31 |
Windows | 7 Enterprise | 1.7.0_65 |
You can check if you have access to the proper JDK or JRE by typing the command
java -version
at a command line window (a.k.a. "DOS prompt" or "Command prompt" window under Windows).
