System Requirements

Required Java Version

The Solution Center Java Starter Project has been designed to work with the latest versions of Java, and has been tested successfully with Java 16+. Older versions of Java may be compatible, but have not been tested and are not supported.

note

During the Maven package lifecycle, an Ewon-compatible JDK will be automatically downloaded and used to compile the resulting source code. This allows for better cross-platform developer support, compilation consistency, and enables the use of modern Java and Maven environments on the host by isolating source code compilation.

Installing a Suitable JDK

If you do not have a suitable JDK installed on your system, follow the vendor instructions to download and install one from the following sources:

Recommended JDK
If you are unsure which JDK to use, we recommend using the Amazon Corretto JDK. It is free, open source, tested successfully, and is the default JDK used by the Solution Center Java Starter Project  CI/CD pipelines.

Required Maven Version

The Solution Center Java Starter Project has been designed to work with the latest versions of Maven, and has been tested successfully with Maven 3.6.3+. Older versions of Maven may be compatible, but have not been tested and are not supported.

Installing a Suitable Maven Version

Many IDEs and build tools include Maven, and may be used to build the Solution Center Java Starter Project without installing Maven directly.

If you do not have a suitable Maven version installed on your system, or would prefer to use Maven manually, follow the vendor instructions to download and install one from the Apache Maven webpage.

Required Ewon Firmware Version

The Solution Center Java Starter Project requires a minimum Ewon firmware version of 14.6 or higher. Older firmware versions may be incompatible and are not supported.

Installing a Suitable Ewon Firmware Version

If you do not have a suitable Ewon firmware version installed on your system, you may download and install one from the Ewon Support webpage.

Follow the instructions provided on the Ewon Support webpage for your specific Ewon device to install the firmware.
