Install Java Development Kit

A Java Development Kit (JDK) provides the Java run-time environment (the Java Virtual Machine, or JVM) and tools for compiling and debugging Java applications. The Java Virtual Machine is required for Java applications, to interpret the Java byte code so that the Java application can be run.

  1. The recommended JDK is "Java SE Development Kit 6" Update 32 (jdk-6u32-windows-i586.exe). The minimum supported JDK is Java SE 6 update 14.

  2. Click the following link to view the various JDK distributions. Accept the License Agreement and download the Windows 32 bit version (ie. jdk-6u32-windows-i586.exe):

    Note: Even if your Windows Installation is 64-bit, Kony Visualizer requires a 32 bit JDK.

  3. Make a note of the destination directory while installing the JDK. This is required to configure the Java Home Environment Variable. Default path is typically set to C:\Program Files\Java or C:\Program Files(x86)\Java.
