Details

Since the version 2.2.0, the 'JWSACruncher' needs 'Java' 8 or higher to run. For versions 3.0.0 and higher, 'JWSACruncher' needs 'Java' 17 or higher. In 'Windows' versions 3.0.0 and higher of 'JWSACruncher' includes a portable version of 'Java'. For lower version of 'JWSACruncher', if you cannot install 'Java' (for example for security reasons) you can install a portable version of 'Java' (that does not require administrator rights) and configure the 'JWSACruncher' to use this portable version. To do it you have to:

  1. Unzip the downloaded file of the 'JWSACruncher';

  2. Open, with a Text Editor, the file jwsacruncher.bat that is in the sub-folder /bin/ of the 'JWSACruncher';

  3. Edit the line 71 that contains if "%JAVACMD%"=="" set JAVACMD=java and replace java by the path to the file java.exe of the portable version. For example, if the portable version of 'Java' is installed under D:/Software/Java, the path to java.exe should be at D:/Software/Java/bin/java.exe and the new line 71 would be if "%JAVACMD%"=="" set JAVACMD="D:\Software\Java\bin\java.exe".

The function configure_jwsacruncher() does the steps 2 and 3.
