The documentation for MangAI says that it needs at least Java 8 installed, but this is not correct. You will get a runtime error if you use a version of Java prior to 10.
If you haven’t already, please make sure to update your Java to at least version 11. There is a newer version, Java 12, available; I prefer using 11 as it is the current long-term support version (ie it should be the most stable), but either 11 or 12 is fine. MangAI will also run on Java 10, but as that Java version has been made obsolete, you should update to avoid potential security issues.
Download Java from Oracle: https://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index.html
Note that if you want to download a version of Java prior to 12, you will have to sign up for a free Oracle account.
Sorry for the confusion. Please contact me if you have any problem with MangAI or updating Java.
New to version 1.15a:
-Compatibility update for newer versions of Java
Starting with Java 9, a cryptography library that MangAI used was no longer available. This would cause an error message about there being something wrong with your license file, although really the problem was the program could not find the code it needed to handle license cryptography.
MangAI has been updated to use a different Java cryptography library. Accordingly, MangAI now requires you to use at least Java 8 (previously required at least Java 6).
It is best to keep your Java up-to-date. The current version at the time of this release is Java 10.
-Various fixes and improvements
Squashed a few minor bugs.
This is a simple update to make MangAI compatible with newer versions of Java. If you haven’t updated your Java in a while, make sure you do so as MangAI will no longer work with Java older than version 8. You can download Java from http://www.java.com/en/download/manual.jsp
If your ereader is not included in the list of MangAI settings profiles, contact me with the model and I can easily add it. There are so many tablets available these days, it’s hard to keep up ^^;
