[Bluej-discuss] Excercise 1.17

[Bryan J Higgs]

You also need to tell BlueJ to use JDK 1.6.

In the BlueJ directory/folder, there's an application called "Select VM"
. If you activate this, it brings up a dialog that will look something like:



You select the appropriate item, and then click on Launch BlueJ.  It
should set the appropriate Java Virtual Machine to use from that point on.

Good luck!
