Notes
- In table above, the "Yes+" means that the given version of Collaborator was built using the given version of Java environment.
- Since version 11.3.11300, Collaborator Server and Client installers for Windows and Mac OS platforms are distributed along with JRE version 8. If no existing Java environment is found, or an existing Java does not meet the Collaborator's requirements, Collaborator will use the bundled version of Java.
- Certain Collaborator client plug-ins still require Java 7 though, they are Eclipse Plug-in Java 7 and Rational Team Concert Plug-in.
