I wanted to install the Link-OS Multiplatform SDK to see if it provided a good solution for my project.
 
But I couldn't install it. I got this message;
 
LaunchAnywhere Error
 
Could not find a valid java virtual machine to load.
 
You may need to reinstall a supported java virtual machine.
 
Hmm, two thoughts cam immediately to mind;
1) Where does it tell me which JVMs are supported. Apologies if I missed it but I can't find it in the system requirements.
2) My development machine is rammed full of stuff as it is, do I really want to have to load a JVM (with all the attendant security issues) just so I can use a printer SDK, I think not.
 
For now, I'm looking at option 2 which is to use ZPL. Let's see how that works out!
