Can Xebium run Java Scripts compiled in 1.7 (OS X)?

[sam4adams]

Hello,
I've had exception errors in Xebium (via Fitnesse) when trying to run Java Scripts compiled in 1.7 (OS X). However after recompiling the project and appropriate jar files to 1.6 Xebium is able to run the Java Scripts fine. Is there a reason for this? If so, why and is there any ETA on when Xebium will be upgraded? If Xebium is able to run scripts in 1.7 let me know what I need to change to make this happen.
Thanks.

I'm not entirely sure what you mean by "Java Scripts", but I presume you mean SLIM fixtures.

If so, this is a problem with the way you're using FitNesse, not really related to Xebium.

FitNesse will load any jars that are supported by the JVM you're using to start the SLIM service. I expect you have a a Java 6 JVM on the PATH.

Can you put your Java 7 JVM on the PATH? Does that help?

Kind regards,

Arnout

Thanks Arnout,
Forgive me, i'm still somewhat new to Java and our company just transitioned over to OS X. How would I confirm which JVM is being used on the PATH?

[raboof]

I'm not familiar with OS X myself, but I presume you could open a terminal and run 'java -version'.

[sam4adams]

Ah, yes I did try that sometime ago on Terminal. I currently have 1.7.0_45. Having said that I still got the Exception error till I recompiled my Java Project to 1.6

[raboof]

How are you starting FitNesse? After running a test, what does the errorlog (under 'Captured output' or 'Errors occurred') show, in particular the start of the 'command' section?

[sam4adams]

Apologize for the delay. I am starting it with the "mvn -Pfitnesse test" command in terminal.
This is the output from that(see below for exception error):

-----Again, once the project and associated jar files are downgraded to 1.6 everything works fine. Hence my question ;)
Thanks for all your help btw.

[raboof]

What does the errorlog (under 'Captured output') show, in particular the start of the 'command' section?

I'd expect that to start with 'java -cp', but let's validate that before making assumptions.
