Re: Fixing support for Java and YAAC on Microsoft Windows

Ah, it appears you do have a newer (service pack) version of the same VC++ runtime library already installed. So you shouldn't have to do anything.
Is YAAC working? Or did I pick the wrong date of the VC++RTL? ________________________________________ From: [email protected] <[email protected]> on behalf of Brian Webster via groups.io <radiowebst@...> Sent: Thursday, September 3, 2020 9:26 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [yaac-users] Fixing support for Java and YAAC on Microsoft Windows [cid:image001.png@...] Brian N2KGC -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Andrew P.

Are you able to open serial ports on your system? Then you don't need the fix. If you can't open serial ports and/or trying to do so crashes YAAC, then you need the correct version of the Visual C++ runtime library (and not a newer incompatible version like the one from VC++ 2017 that is now bundled in the new builds of the Java runtime). Can you send me a screenshot of your error message? I'm not sure whether it's griping that you should upgrade all your apps to use VC++2017 as opposed to saying you already have a service-packed version of VC++ 2010 RTL.

For those who haven't been able to get YAAC working on Microsoft Windows since accepting a Java 8 upgrade past build 281, I think I have a fix. But I can't build the fix into YAAC because it requires installing a licensed Microsoft product. So, you need to download and install the Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 SP1 Redistributable Package (either x86 or x64, depending on the version of the Java runtime you are using); note it won't hurt (other than using extra disk space) to install both versions on x64 version of Windows. I hope I have the correct year of the Redistributable. This can be downloaded from the Microsoft website at (x86 version) (x64 version) Let me know if this still doesn't fix your problem.
