Java VM JITter

When recording Oracle Forms 6i on either HTTP or Sockets, it is recommended that you disable Java JITting in the Java runtime settings. This is because the JITting library of the Java Virtual Machine (symcjit.dll) may crash your browser.

Note: Disable JITting whenever your browser crashes during recording.

Option #1

Define -DJAVA.COMPILER=NONE in the Java runtime settings of the Oracle JInitiator Properties dialog. This must be done using the JInitiator control panel, which is installed with JInitiator (available in the Windows Control Panel). To do this:

  1. Launch the JInitiator Control Panel.
  2. Add -DJAVA.COMPILER=NONE in the Java Run Time Parameters text field.
  3. Click Apply.

Option #2

Use the check box on the Oracle JInitiator Properties dialog to disable the Just In Time Compiler (only available since version 1.1.8.x). To do this:

  1. Launch the JInitiator Control Panel.
  2. Select the Advanced tab.
  3. Deselect the Enable Just In Time Compiler check box.
  4. Click Apply.

Option #3

Define an environment variable: SET JAVA_COMPILER=NONE.
