figure 1 shows you the software that you have a choice of installing. at minimum you need to install visual cafe 2.0 and dbanywhere server. the remaining packages are for creating and publishing html (visual page), browsing the internet (netscape communicator), server software (fasttrack) and sql database (sybase sql anywhere).
this version of visual cafe supports jdk (java development kit) version 1.1. as you can see, there is a patch for the netscape communicator in reference to the jdk. it was not made clear whether or not the jdk must be already installed. this is not something to take for granted because i had previously installed version 1.1.3 to create applets. just to be safe, i zapped jdk 1.1.3 from my harddrive. visual cafe does come with all of the necessary java software, and so i did not run into any compatibility problems.
