how to set the java exception site for windows local folder

[xd]

how to add the folder "D:\Program Files\PTC\Creo 3.0\Common Files\protoolkit\" to Exception Site List in Java Control Panel?

java 1.8.x

windows 7 x64

internet explorer 11

on the Java web site, there are only exsamples for HTTP and HTTPS,

there is NOT any exsample for FILE protocol.

file:///D:\Program Files\PTC\Creo 3.0\Common Files\protoolkit\

file:///D:/Program Files/PTC/Creo 3.0/Common Files/protoolkit/

neither works

as a result , when i open the ProToolKit API , there comes the java security warning message.

Here is an example of my Pro/TOOLKIT exceptions list.

You must use forward slashes in the path.  I see that you have that in one of your examples.  However, it seems you are missing an additional path/file.

file:///C:/PTC/PROE_WF5_M200/protoolkit/protkdoc/

thanks so much for your reply.

1, I notice that , there is no SPACE in you path. I guess that the SPACE in the path have some affect.

i tried replace the SPACE with '%20', and i will try to copy the doc files to a folder with no SPACE.

2, there are 3 '/' after "file", is it right?

3, do i need to add both 2 locations in your picture to the Exception Site List?

file:///C:/PTC/PROE_WF5_M200/protoolkit/protkdoc/

file:///C:/PTC/PROE_WF5_M200/protoolkit/protkdoc/NSCPTestSwing.html

4, i encountered a policy problem, i will upload the screen snap later.

hi pwilliams-3

i tried again, it seem there is no relation with the SPACE.

file:///D:/Program Files/PTC/Creo 3.0/F000/Common Files/protoolkit/protkdoc/

it works.

however, there is another problem.

First of all, thanks very much.

I just can't believe that Creo 3.0 can not work well with java 8.After all, Creo 3.0 is realeased more than a year.

is it possible without Java 1.6?

As java suggest "update the java to the latest version", is it possible with Java 8?

[Eike_Hauptmann · Accepted solution]

We changed mostly to the non Java Version of the Helpfiles.

file:///<INSTALL_PATH>/Creo%203.0/M100/Common%20Files/protoolkit/protkdoc/manual0/loadToolkitDoc.html

So it's not that easy to make searches, but it works very well to find commands if you have an idea of the command name.

Br,

Eike

i updated to M120 yestoday, and  I get it.

Thanks for your warm help.

bty, why not sign the jar?

or is it possible to grant permission through java security?
