Java
XMLBlueprint is a native Windows application, so XMLBlueprint does not install the Java framework.
If you want to run Java tools to validate your XML Documents (e.g., Jing, MSV, Xerces) or run XSLT Stylesheets (e.g., Saxon, Xalan) you need to install the Java Development Kit (JDK) or the Java Runtime Environment (JRE).
If the Java framework is not installed, you will get the following error message when trying to run a Java tool:
Please download and install JAVA (www.java.com)and define JAVA_HOME to point to the installed JDK or JRE.
