Created attachment 133134 [details] java registry settings Menu Tools/Options.../LibreOffice/Advanced/Java Options "[X] Use a Java runtime environment" allows to enable/disable Java. Java settings can be preconfigured using a"javasettings_Windows_x86.xml" in \share\config, for example: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <java xmlns="http://openoffice.org/2004/java/framework/1.0" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"> <enabled xsi:nil="true"/> <userClassPath xsi:nil="true"/> <vmParameters xsi:nil="false"> <param>-Xms64M</param> <param>-Xmx512M</param> </vmParameters> <jreLocations xsi:nil="true"/> <javaInfo xsi:nil="false" vendorUpdate="2013-05-02" autoSelect="false"> [...] </javaInfo> </java> if a shared java setting is present, LO will write a dummy (?) "javasettings_Windows_x86.xml" to \user\config: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!--This is a generated file. Do not alter this file!--> <java xmlns="http://openoffice.org/2004/java/framework/1.0" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"> <enabled xsi:nil="true"></enabled> <userClassPath xsi:nil="true"></userClassPath> <vmParameters xsi:nil="true"></vmParameters> <jreLocations xsi:nil="true"></jreLocations> <javaInfo xsi:nil="true"></javaInfo> </java> in an enterprise environment users maybe should not be able to change preconfigured java settings. but at the moment a user can change it. the changed "javasettings_Windows_x86.xml" is written to \user\config and replaces the shared java settings. checkbox "[X] Use a Java runtime environment" sets <enabled xsi:nil="false">true</enabled> or <enabled xsi:nil="false">false</enabled> inside "javasettings_Windows_x86.xml". there is also a registry entry "org.openoffice.Office.Java/VirtualMachine/Enable" but changing it's value seems to have no effect.
