Starting the Visualizer directly from the Java Web Start executable

If you want to start the Visualizer without changing Java or other system settings, you can use the direct launch approach. This approach launches the Visualizer directly from the Java Web Start executable. You might want to use the direct launch approach if you have multiple versions of Java installed on your workstation and you use other Web Start applications besides the Visualizer.

Before you begin
Locate the path to the required Java Web Start executable file (javaws) on your workstation.
About this task
You can also create a shortcut on your desktop to the Java Web Start executable file by selecting the javaws file and entering the URL to the Visualizer in the Target field.
  1. From your desktop, open a DOS command window.
  2. On the command line, enter the direct launch command: path_to_Java_installationpath_to_javaws_exe_file>javaws.exe URL for the Visualizer For example: C:/IBM/Java60/jre/bin>javaws.exe http://localhost:13510/docs/rrmdi.jnlp
    Important: Note the space between the Java Web Start executable file extension and the URL.
Results
The Visualizer successfully opens.
