Mathcad v3.1, v4.0, v6.0, v8.0, v15.0 run with OpenJDK

Hi, 

Mathcad v3.1, v4.0, v6.0, v8.0, v15.0 run with OpenJDK

Are these versions able to run with OpenJDK instead of Oracle Java?   I am hoping that one is able to install the OpenJDK and then install the MathCad.  Please let me know if this has been tested and works.

I am not able to find any information on this site.

Thank you.

None of those versions are supported any longer.

Sales of all versions prior to MathCAD Prime 7 were halted at the end of 2021.

Hi,

These are the system requirements they include a 64 bit windows operating system?

System requirements

  • 64-bit Windows 10 machine
  • 2 GB of hard disk space (600 MB for PTC Mathcad, 1.5 GB temporary space during installation)
  • Microsoft .NET Framework 4.8
  • DVD drive (for physical media) or Internet connection (for download). Internet connection is required in both cases for license acquisition.
  • To view the PTC Mathcad Prime 8.0.0.0 Help system, your system must have one of the following browsers:
        • Google Chrome (all versions)
        • Internet Explorer 9 or later
        • Firefox 10 or later

For the versions 3.1 to 8.0 you need to specify if you refer to (real) Mathcad, or to (Mathcad) Prime.

If (real) Mathcad: None of those versions will install and/or run on modern 64-bit windows.

 

Success!

All these v3.1, v4.0, v8.0, are MathCAD Prime for sure.  I am new to this software; and we are trying to make sure we do not have Oracle Java install if at all possible.  If you can provide me any information; it will be greatly appreciated.  Thank you.

Hi,

It is not necessary to install Oracle Java to use  Prime.

Cheers

 Hi,

 

I don't think you should have problems in that case.
