Platform Windows7 I disabled Java RE under OPTIONS->LibreOFFICE->Java I heard it is not needed any more for browsers, so I thought, that I could disable it on LO as well. However I had a lot of problems then (crashes, very slow start...) I just want to note, that there should be a warning: Before disabling Java, you need to be warned that this might not be a good idea. For all you programmers this might be common sense, but not so for most of your user base. Thanks for your attention.
Even if most LibreOffice sources are in C++, there are some parts in Java. Wizards used in Base are some of these. Now, we can't do many things here if you don't give detailed examples. Could you file some crash bugs you have? (by giving the exact steps). Rainer: about this tracker what do you think about the status it should have?
Reporter's observations with crashes and slow start art things what have to be fixed. Disabling Java my not cause crashes and may not slow down LibO launch, I reduced this report to the "very slow start problem" I a m pretty sure that such a problem has been discussed for more early Versions, butcurrently I can't find that @m.meinesz: "Disabled JRE seems to cause problems" is nothing we can fix. We need something to make this problem reproducible like "first LibO Launch after PC reboot takes 5s with enabled JRE 1.6.xxx, 15s with disabled JRE. My related settings are Quickstarter disabled, ..., ..." or similar. Please feel free to submit an additional bug report for your crash problem.
