The application client and server installation programs automatically install a Java Virtual Machine on your computer if the required version is not already installed.
Java requires a minimum of 256 colors to start any AWT or Swing-based graphical user interface. When you try to start the StarTeam Server from the Microsoft Windows Start menu on a computer with too few colors, you see a DOS box briefly display on the screen.
The StarTeam Cross-Platform Client installer runs the Oracle tzupdater program on the Java Runtime Environment (JRE) installed with this release (see system requirements for the version number). The tzupdater program changes the JRE in order to provide better DST (Daylight Savings Time) information for Eastern, Mountain, and Hawaiian time zones. It also deletes three JRE files from the lib/zi folder (if they are there): EST, HST, MST.
