9/1/08 Change the default Java Runtime Environment for a specific user

To use a different version of Java as the default runtime environment for a specific user, create a new STMF file on the IFS within the home directory for the user as follows:

/home/UserPrf/SystemDefault.properties

Note: Replace underscored values with appropriate values.

This file should contain one line (e.g. 1.4, but it can be any version that is installed on the system), i.e.: java.version=1.4

Save and exit the file and that User will now be using this specified version of Java.
