Does the latest version of Ranorex support Java Swing or do I need to have the plugin? One of the webpages seemed to imply a plugin was still needed.

If so, can you point me to a link?

Thanks!

Hi,

Ranorex supports Java Swing for a very long time. There is no need to install anything extra. All required plurins are a part of Ranorex installation package. The best you can do is to try Ranorex with your app.

I currently use 6.1.1 (which does not support Java Swing unless it was not installed correctly by my IT folks) while we are waiting for 8.1 to get approved to be installed on our classified network. That is why I asked.

Thanks for the reply

Hi,

I'm not sure I understand this:
"which does not support Java Swing unless it was not installed correctly by my IT folks"
Installed correctly what? Ranorex or the the Java Swing app?
I'm pretty sure that Ranorex 8 (7 probably too) does not need any separate Java Swing plugin. In other words, all required plugins (for supported technologies) are a part of Ranorex installation package. Of course, there may be some custom-made UI elements, which are not recognized by Ranorex. Unfortunately, it's impossible to tell if all elements in your app will be recognized as expected, without examining your app under test.

All I mean by that is if there was a plugin that allowed v6.1.1 to work with Java Swing that was not installed when v6.1.1 was installed on my box.

No big deal...hopefully I can 8.1 very soon.

Thanks for the replies!
