xTimeComposer 14.3.3 java versions on Ubuntu

Post by bearcat »

After an upgrade to Ubuntu 18.04, java version 1.10 auto updated once I loaded version 1.8. Appears xTimeComposer doesn't currently work with version 1.10.

To save others time, here's how to specify to use version 1.8 with xTimeComposer. Edit the xTimeComposer.sh bash file to include the 2 java lines:

Code: Select all

#!/bin/bash

cd /opt/XMOS/xTIMEcomposer/Community_14.3.3
source SetEnv
JAVA_HOME="/usr/lib/jvm/java-1.8.0-openjdk-amd64"
PATH=${JAVA_HOME}/bin:$PATH
xtimecomposer

Thanks very much from me too, Bearcat.
I found the same problem, after updating to 18.04.
I tried your workaround and it didn't work for me but putting the java lines in .bashrc worked for me.
I'll report the problem to Engineering.
Best regards,
John
