Hello,


could you give me a hint ... I am looking for a table to see,
which mksapi.jar version requires/supports which JDK  version / is used for testing by PTC.


I ask because we are not sure if JDK 8 is required/supportet or if we can also use JDK 11..

 

We use Windchill .v12.4 and access its API via mksapi-jar-4.16.2671.jar .

 

Thanks for your support.

Ron

Yes, good idea 😉  I opened a case at PTC ... 

 

PTC suggests to use JRE v8.x matching to the used Operating System also for the java-program using mks-api.jar 

At the moment newer JRE versions >8.x are not certified (meaning that there were no tests performed by PTC team on those versions).

Windchill 12.0.2.0 Software Matrices | PTC

 

From that document, only 11.0.11 is the tested release.

Java 8 was good for all release of Windchill 11.x.

Thanks a lot for your fast response with the linked  Windchill 12.0.2.0 Software Matrices | PTC , That's what I was looking for!

 

I would interpret
if  *Java (JDK 11.0.11 )  is a required component for the Windchill server" 
I shall also it, when I access the server API via mksapi-jar-4.16.2671.jar.
Means I shall prefer JDK 11 and do not use JDK 8
Right?

 

Thanks in advance!
