5.3.1. Requirements

You need to install Eclipse if you have not already done so. Axivion Eclipse Plugin is compatible with Eclipse version 4.7.0 (Oxygen R) and later.

We support the latest update release of versions 8, 11-14, 17, and 21 of the 64-bit HotSpot Java Runtime Environment.

Other 64-bit Java 8 (or newer) runtimes should also work.

On Windows, the Java security provider “SunMSCAPI” (jdk.crypto.mscapi) is required. By default, this provider is included in the JRE and JDK. If a stripped down Java without SunMSCAPI has to be used, a fallback random number generator algorithm can be allowed by setting the environment variable AXIVION_ALLOW_DEFAULT_SECURE_RANDOM=YES (case-sensitive).

Your Eclipse version may impose further restrictions on the required Java Versions.

Note that using local analyses features (local build and single-file analysis) has additional requirements. They are the requirements of the Analysis as well as those of the Dashboard Server in the respective version of the connected Axivion Suite.
