OpenEdge Debugger : Introduction : Debugger system requirements
 

Debugger system requirements

The Debugger runs in Windows and on UNIX. The Windows version of the Debugger can debug either GUI or character-mode applications. The UNIX version of the Debugger can debug only character-mode applications.
The Debugger is a Java™ application. As such, it requires that the Java Run-time Environment (JRE) component be installed on the same machine. The JRE is the run-time part of Java and consists of the Java Virtual Machine, the Java Core Classes, and supporting files. Depending on the platform on which you install the Debugger, the JRE might not have been included in the installation. In Windows, the OpenEdge installation program automatically installs these Java components. On UNIX, the OpenEdge installation program automatically installs these Java components only on certain platforms.
