Packing Apps with built in JRE...
I have a couple of applications that I am trying to capture that install their own JRE however after creating the MSIX they complain that the JRE can't be found and suggest setting JAVA_HOME. ---...
I have looked into UVC. It is an odd thing...
I don't have it working yet, but getting closer.
What I know:
- DynamicLibraryFixup is needed for a number of dlls..
- vcruntime140.dll and vcruntime140_1.dll must still be copied to the Program Files\UVC folder (as the app uses fileexists before loadlibrary so DynamicLibraryFixup doesn't help.
The app makes use of FindFirstFile and gets confused. This is something that I am investigating as a potential edge-case bug in the FileRedirectionFixup. I'll drop a note back here if fixable.
Thanks for the update TIMOTHY_MANGAN
- Is this resolved now? I also got a package which require (Zulu) Java 1.8 and got the JVM.DLL loading error. Also here i guess the variables are not set, but I can't find the solution to get it working.
- There are many problems with this app that will need fixes that are "in progress", however there may be additional unidentified issues.
I can say that if the installer sets a environment variable, then the EnvVarFixup is needed. PsfTooling should automatically detect the need for that fixup if that is the case.- Hi Tim thanks for your response. I tried using the PsfTooling and it did detect the environment needed, but I was not able to get it in my package. I tried manually which also failed....will try again until I get it working 😉
