Install Mozilla XulRunner As Internal Browser
Servoy Developer uses a browser component in several locations, like the Developer Start Page and the updated Form Editor for Servoy Mobile in Servoy 7.4.
By default the browser component used is the default browser of the operating system, so Internet Explorer on Windows or Safari on OSX.
In case of issues with the default browser (especially with the Form Editor), it is possible to install a FireFox based browser component called XulRunner into Servoy Developer, which will then be used instead of the default browser.
The XulRunner browser is available as plugin and can be installed using the following steps:
- Go to Help > Install New Software...
- Select the Xulrunner Plugin update site from the available sites or use https://www.servoy.com/developer/xulrunner if the Xulrunner Plugin update site is not available
- Follow the steps of the installation wizard to install the plugin
After the plugin is installed and before Servoy Developer is restarted the servoy.ini file in the
{servoyInstall}/developer
directory needs to be updated. Add the following line to the end of this file:Code Block -Dorg.eclipse.swt.browser.DefaultType=mozilla
After restart of Servoy Developer the XulRunner browser component will be used as browser component inside Servoy Developer.

To setup Servoy Developer on OSX to work with Java 7 (assuming Java 7 is already installed) the following steps need to be performed:
...
go to the part where it says something like 'to use a specific Java version (instead of the platform's default) uncomment one of the following options:'
here, add a line as (with the path to the Java 1.7 install):
Code Block <string>-vm</string><string>/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.7.0_25.jdk/Contents/Home/bin/java</string>
...
specific Java version under Windows
Edit [...]\developer\servoy.ini. Above the '-vmargs' line, add two lines, as
...
shown below: (corresponding to the Java
...
install that you want to use)

-vm

...
In this same directory (.../developer/servoy.app/Contents/MacOS/
) create a script called servoy.sh
, which contains the following text:
Code Block |

#\!/bin/sh

export JAVA_HOME=/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/1.7.0.jdk/Contents/Home

Make sure the script can be executed (maybe execute a chmod a+x servoy.sh
)
...
To double check that Servoy Developer actually runs with 1.7, in the Servoy Developer go to Help > About Servoy Developer > Installation Details > Configuration, and see java.runtime.version
for example)
