A J2RE or J2SDK can be downloaded from the links below. Please upgrade to a newer version if it is not very recent. Note that OmegaT cannot be used on any version before Windows 98 due to the fact that the JREs available on that platform are not recent enough.įor both UNIX and Windows, please note that as of this writing the current Java version is in the 1.5 range (stable version). If a JRE is already installed, a control panel dialog labelled "Java(TM)2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition 1.x.y_z” or similar (with x, y, z representing some version numbers) will be present. Windows users: check which version of JRE, if any, is installed with Start(button)/Windows key > Settings > Control Panel. The version installed will be returned(if Java is installed as an executeable in your shell path). UNIX users (includes Linux & Solaris): type java -version at a command prompt in a console or terminal program. OmegaT 0.97 is an obsolete version and this documentation makes no further reference to it.
#OMEGAT LATEST VERSION FOR MAC#
To run an OmegaT 0.97 version, download the MRJ for Mac OS9 from the Apple website at. OmegaT version 1.4 or greater will not run on this platform. Earlier versions of OmegaT (namely 0.97) are known to run on the MRJ for Macintosh OS 9.
#OMEGAT LATEST VERSION INSTALL#
Run Software Update and install the required package. In case the system has been updated to OS X 10.3.9 and problems occur, be aware that a special update is necessary to make Java application run on this OS X version. It has not yet been tested on OS X 10.4 but should work too. OmegaT is known to work on OS X from OS X 10.2 to the most recent OS X 10.3.9 update. If OmegaT does not work, make sure to run Software Update from the Apple Menu to get the latest JRE available for the OS X version. Depending upon the OS X version installed, an old JRE version may be the only one available. This is the only platform that does not require the user to install a JRE.
#OMEGAT LATEST VERSION MAC OS#
Mac users: On Mac OS X, a JRE is pre-installed and configured. Please note that JRE is available in the form of both a standalone product (J2RE) or as part of the Java Software Developer's Kit(J2SDK). In which case, please obtain one and install it first. If nothing happens, or error messages are returned, the Java Runtime Environment is almost certainly not installed. If uncertain as to whether or not a JRE is installed, install OmegaT first and then test to see if it works (see OmegaT Installation). The computer being used to run OmegaT must have a Java Runtime Environment(JRE) installed on it-IT WILL NOT WORK WITHOUT ONE INSTALLED! Configuration is not essential on UNIX based platforms, but it will make launching the application more user-friendly for those that require it. Java and OmegaT can be installed in any order.
